A67757	what is heaven to us?
A67757	when they might as well say, W ● at is Christ to us?
A67773	( especially if they have not been notorious offenders) Are they a whit troubled for Sin, either Original or Actual?
A67773	12. to 21. Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean?
A67773	Again, this is an infallible truth, that without repentance there is no being saved; and what hope of their serious and unfained repentance?
A67773	Are you proud?
A67773	As ask them these questions, How do you hope to be saved?
A67773	As how many temptations come in by those Cink- ports the senses?
A67773	As what saies our Saviour?
A67773	As, are we bound to perform perfect obedience to the Law?
A67773	But it is very easie to believ, thinks the sensualist; yes, but why?
A67773	But it will be demanded how this comes ● be so?
A67773	Didst thou never hear Sermons unpreparedly, irreverently,& c?
A67773	Does thy heart upon a Sabbath rest from wordly thoughts?
A67773	Dost thou expect to have him mercifull to thee, that art unmerci ● ull, cruell, and bloody to ● i m, to his, and thine own soul?
A67773	For what wil such a one suggest to himself?
A67773	Hast thou been liberal to those that are owners of a part of thy goods?
A67773	Hast thou kept the Tenth Commandement?
A67773	Hast thou not robb''d God of his worship?
A67773	Have you never broke this or that Commandement?
A67773	If some that have journied in the wilderness to Kad ● sh- barnea, shall yet never enter into Gods rest; shall those that never left Egypt?
A67773	Is the stony ground reprobate?
A67773	It is a people that do 〈 ◊ 〉 their hearts, saies God; Why?
A67773	No, not they, What should they bee proud of?
A67773	Now tell me?
A67773	Or will they acknowledge themselves in a lost condition without Christ?
A67773	Therefore the mayn question is, Whether thou art a Believer?
A67773	Thou canst not away with swearing; but do''st thou reprove others for their swearing?
A67773	Thou shalt not commit Adultery?
A67773	Were we for disobedience subject to the sentence of condemnation, the curse of the Law, and death of body and soul?
A67773	What greater unbelife could there be?
A67773	What then is our sinfulnesse?
A67773	What will be their manner of answering?
A67773	When Christ wept over Jerusalem, what was the cause?
A67773	Whence come warrs, and fightings among you?
A67773	Which being so, how oft and how many wayes do we all offend?
A67773	Why shouldest thou deceive thy self with an opinion of faith?
A67773	Yea, what possibility is there that ever such a soul should have any benefit by Christ?
A67773	and what was the cause?
A67773	com ● they not hence?
A67773	hast thou not robb''d thy brother of his good name?
A67773	how many more by Satans injections?
A67773	much more thy tongue from worldly speeches?
A67773	of his Sabbaths?
A67773	presenting to the affections things absent from the sences?
A67773	to bee affected with joy in hearing the Word, and practice many things, with Herod?
A67773	to confess thy sins, and ● esire the people of God to pray for thee with Pharoah?
A67773	to venture thy life with Alexander the Copper- smith, in cleaving to the tru ● h?
A67773	to ● ee zealous against sin, with Jehu?
A67773	who finds not in himself, an indisposition of mind to all good; and an inclination to all evill?
A67773	willingly to part with a good part of ● hy goods, with Anarias?
A67773	● o forsake the world& all thy hopes in it; to fol ● ow poor Christ, as Demus and others?
A67764	14 ¶ Secondly, Are you regenerate and born anew?
A67764	3 ¶ What wrong do they do you?
A67764	Again says the same Apostle, If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we reap your carnal things?
A67764	And do you, instead of honoring, respecting and rewarding them, hate, traduce and persecute them?
A67764	And were it not most just with God to take away our faithful Ministers from us, when we so ill intreat them, and so unworthily reward them?
A67764	And who is there in all this Nation, that thinks not himself a Christian?
A67764	Are we not commanded by the Holy Ghost to have them in singular love, and count them worthy of double honor for their works sake?
A67764	Are you not ashamed of it?
A67764	As how many of your cavils and exceptions could I reckon up, that I have heard from your own mouths, if I would foul Paper with them?
A67764	As what can you alleadge for your selves, or against your Pastors?
A67764	But how do they serve Christ& themselves, in so serving their Ministers?
A67764	But left what hath been said should not prove sufficient; how basely will you calumniate him that but takes his Dues, especially of a poor body?
A67764	But what doting, blockish and brain- sick Bedlam- Positions are these?
A67764	Can you tell me?
A67764	Do ye not know, that they which minister about holy things, live of the things of the Temple?
A67764	Do you do by the Ministers as you ought, or as you would be done by?
A67764	Do you strive?
A67764	First, Are you of that small number?
A67764	If for a President?
A67764	If, why I have been silent so long?
A67764	Is this an evidence that you have them in singular respect for their works sake?
A67764	Is this change wrought in you?
A67764	Is this to receive them as an Angel of God, yea, as Christ Jesus?
A67764	Much Respected, IF you ask, Why I take this pains?
A67764	Now lay all together, and tell me whether this argues not hatred?
A67764	Now tell me what you think of these blockish Jews: Were they more wicked, or witless, or ingrateful?
A67764	Otherwise, how could you make such a mighty difference between your bodies and souls?
A67764	Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
A67764	Secondly of your own, and all the peoples souls, as much as in you lies: For how should your Pastor feed your souls, if you feed not his body?
A67764	The righteous shall scarcely be saved; what then shall become of the unrighteous?
A67764	The sons of Eli would not hearken unto, nor obey the voice of their Father: why?
A67764	Then — Thirdly, Have you a true and lively faith in Jesus Christ?
A67764	To which I answer: What then makes you so spightful, in spitting out your spleen against them, when you but hear a Minister mentioned?
A67764	What makes you so frequent in slighting, scorning, and scoffing at them where ever you come, and in all companies?
A67764	What sayes our Saviour?
A67764	Whether you are Regenerate?
A67764	Whether you are of that small number, whom Christ hath chosen out of the world?
A67764	Whether you have true and saving faith?
A67764	You are gathered together against the Lord; and what is Aaron, that ye murmure against him?
A67764	and bring upon us a famine of Preaching, who would bring a famine upon the Preachers, by purloining the maintenance of his Ministers?
A67764	be rewarded with the greatest evil, for the greatest good; and the greatest hatred, for the most superlative love?
A67764	does it not make you tremble?
A67764	how should the lamp burn, if you take away the holy oil that should maintain it?
A67764	if not, what can?
A67764	such a one; why doest thou persecute me?
A67764	yea, is it not enough to make you despair of ever finding mercy at the Throne of Grace, or of having Christ your Redeemer and Advocate?
A67764	yea, since we love darkness more then light, may not God justly leave us in the dark?
A67779	& never give a reckoning for our wicked swearing and cursing?
A67779	And do you make it a small matter to forsake God, and make a God of the Creature?
A67779	And in reason, Hath God done so much for us, and shall we deny him any thing he requireth of us?
A67779	And indeed, what fence for a pistol charged with the bullet of friendship?
A67779	And indeed, who shall go to Hell, if Cursers should be left out?
A67779	And indeed, whom can you observe to love this sin, or to have their mouths full of cursing, but Ruffian ▪ and sons of Belial?
A67779	And indeed, why should not Gods servants take as free liberty in reproving, as the Devils servants take liberty in offending?
A67779	And no marvel, for what Leper will take pleasure in the searching of his sores?
A67779	And shall we deny this Lord that hath bought us?
A67779	And tell me, Were it a good plea, to commit a Fel ● ny, and say that others do so?
A67779	And this God takes as done to himself; What saith Paul?
A67779	And what a shame is it, that our God should not have as faithful servants, as he hath unfaithful enemies?
A67779	And what though their case be not onely desperate, but almo ● ● hopeless?
A67779	And what though we can not do what we would?
A67779	And whence do these Monsters of the earth, these hellish miscreants, these bodily and visible devils learn this their damnable cursing and swearing?
A67779	And who makes the difference of Wills, but God that made them?
A67779	Are not their tongues fired and edged from Hell?
A67779	Are we come without the Lord?
A67779	Are you willing to be saved?
A67779	As what is light to them that will shut their eyes against it?
A67779	As what saies Basil, Shall we speak to drunkards?
A67779	As who by looking in a Glass shall spy spots in his face, and will not forth with wipe them out?
A67779	Besides, how frequently dost thou pollute and profane Gods Name, and thy Saviours?
A67779	Besides, why dost thou curse thine enemy?
A67779	But in this case, Who are you angry withal?
A67779	But this is not one half of thine offence, For whom dost thou curse?
A67779	But what are these men like, and how are they like to speed in the end?
A67779	But what do I urge reason to men of a reprobate judgment?
A67779	Did I swear or curse?
A67779	Did they not( many of them) live to see their City buried in ashes, and drowned in bloud?
A67779	Did you ever know that wicked men, thieves, drunkards, adulterers, persecuters, false prophets, or the like, would be damned alone?
A67779	Does your horse, the dice, the rain, or any other creature displease you?
A67779	For as none but a Cain will say, Am I my brothers keeper?
A67779	How much more will wicked men decline from seeing their hainous abominations, and themselves guilty of Hell, and eternal damnation?
A67779	How shall I spare thee for this?
A67779	Or if he do, will not the Judge so much the rather send him to the Gallows?
A67779	Or wilt thou leap into Hell, and cast away thy soul, because others do so?
A67779	Shall not the one be as loud for God, as the other are for Baal and Beelzebub?
A67779	Sixteen hundred years are now past, since they wished themselves thus wretched: and have they not ever since been the hate and scorn of the world?
A67779	The Jews said, Let his bloud be upon us, and upon our children; and what followed?
A67779	Was there ever any people under heaven, that was made so famous a spectacle of misery and desolation?
A67779	What will be the issue?
A67779	Whence as the Chief Priests answered Judas, What is that to us?
A67779	Wherefore seekest thou to take me in a snare, to cause me to die?
A67779	Which being so, vvhat may the many millions of these ding- thrifty dearth- makers consume in a year in all the three Nations?
A67779	Who could have less deserved those curses and ston ● s from Shimei, than David?
A67779	Whom hast thou blasphemed?
A67779	Will you believe the Prophet Amos?
A67779	Yea, be perswaded to hearken a while unto me, as you would have God another day hearken unto you: Are you Christians, as you call your selves?
A67779	Yea, did not that head deserve to be tongueless, that body to be headless, that so undeservedly cursed such an Innocent?
A67779	Yea, does not this keep them off from embracing the Christian Religion, and cause them to protest against their ovvn conversion?
A67779	and against whom hast thou exalted thy self?
A67779	or reason to them that will stop their ears from hearing it?
A67779	or what is salvation to us?
A67779	shall we most spitefully and maliciously fight on Satans side against him with all our might, and that against knowledge and conscience?
A67779	to see themselves no Nation?
A67779	what is heaven to us?
A67779	when they might as well say, What is Christ to us?
A67779	〈 ◊ 〉 shall we think any pains too much for that whi ● h will ad ● ● to the we 〈 … 〉 our eternal glory and salvation?
A67780	And how many more of those Martyrs 〈 ◊ 〉 Queen Maryes Raign, were even ravished, before they could be permitt ● ● to die?
A67780	And indeed, what have we by our second birth, which is not miraculous in comparison of our naturall condition?
A67780	And what saith our Saviour to the unjust Steward?
A67780	And why forsooth?
A67780	As let me ask ● ur discreet ones but this question?
A67780	As what think you of Ionathan, whom neither steepness of Rocks, nor multitude of enemies, could discourage, or diswade from so unlikely an assault?
A67780	But how contrary is the opinion of the World, to the judgment of God, and the wisest of men concerning valour?
A67780	But what ever others find, thy sufferings are not thus counterpoysed and sweetned?
A67780	But with what comforts doth the Lord supply our losses?
A67780	But ● hat if God findes it meet?
A67780	For the Law of God, and the Law of Nature forbids it; and doth not the Law of Nations also?
A67780	For what are the things our enemies can take from us, in comparison of Christ, the Ocean of our comfort, and Heaven the place of our rest?
A67780	Had it been an ill office ● o have cryed out and said?
A67780	He that will corrupt his conscience for a pound, what would he do for a thousand?
A67780	How oft have we heard men that have been displeased with others, tear the Name of their Maker in pieces?
A67780	I, but is it wisdome so to do?
A67780	If Iudas will fell his Master for thirty pence, what would he not have done for the Treasury?
A67780	Now if all our sufferings are thus counterpoysed, and exceeded with blessings; have we any cau ● e to be angry and impatient?
A67780	Now, whethers counsell wilt thou follow?
A67780	O Adam take heed what thou dost?
A67780	O gentle Cato, how happy art thou to have been such an one?
A67780	Shall we receive good at the ● ● nd of God, and not evill?
A67780	So he that will not be in Charity, shall never be in Heaven: And why should I do my self a shrewd turn because ● nother would?
A67780	The King of Israel set bread and water before the host of the King of Syria, when he might have slain them, 2 King 6.23 ▪ What did he lose by it?
A67780	Their conquering was by dying, not by killing: and, can the back of Charity now bear no load?
A67780	What need we return rayling for rayling?
A67780	What saith Iob?
A67780	What saith a Father?
A67780	What saith one advisedly?
A67780	What will not men undergo, so their pay may be answerable?
A67780	What''s the reason?
A67780	When Aristippus was asked by one in derision, where the great high friendship was become, that formerly had been between him and Aeschines?
A67780	Who will not suffer a few stripes from a Father, by whom he receiveth so much good, even all that he hath?
A67780	Why doth the Hare use so many doublings?
A67780	Will any man eat poyson because there is but a little of it?
A67780	Would any man put his life to a venture, if he knew that when he died he should presently drop into hell?
A67780	are the sinews of Love grown so feeble?
A67780	but what if I passe over and fall not?
A67780	or had we not more cause to be fill''d with joy and thank ● fulness, that we our selves are in better case?
A67780	or if a Mastiff had bitten me, would you have me go to Law with him?
A67780	or who will be angry with a Dogge for barking?
A67780	or, had he cause to repent himself?
A67780	slay them?
A67780	where are those torme ● ● ● which whilome thou didst so threaten me withall?
A67780	which told him, that God was his enemy, and knew no oth ● ● th ● n th ● t hell should be his everlasting portion?
A67780	who can ● avell?
A67762	14. and indeed, if they are spiritually discerned, how should they discern them that have not the spirit?
A67762	Again, Fifthly, how does Lust blind and be ● ot men?
A67762	Again, if it be asked, Why the natural man perceiveth not the things of the spirit of God?
A67762	And how should it be otherwise?
A67762	And so how poor are the witches, that in confidence of these promises, even sell their souls to the Devil?
A67762	And what greater folly?
A67762	And what is the summa totalis of all, but this?
A67762	Are 〈 ◊ 〉 these so many infallible properties of a fool?
A67762	As how often is that spent upon one Christmas revelling by the Son, which was forty years a getting by the Father?
A67762	Besides, if these great knowers know so little, how ignorant are the rude rabble, that despise all knowledge?
A67762	But Sixthly, what can we think of an improvident Gamester?
A67762	But how shall a man know, whether he hath this knowledge?
A67762	But why?
A67762	But would there men( any one, even the best of them) thus improve, or imploy their knowledge?
A67762	Fourthly, what think you of common Idolaters?
A67762	How could he other then think, if Lust had not blinded and betwitched him, She whose body is mercenary to me, will easily sell me to others?
A67762	How did they shake him off in that pitiful distress, with, Look thou to it?
A67762	How the heat of the stomach, and the strength of the nether chap should be so great?
A67762	How the waters should stand upon a heap, and yet not over flow the earth?
A67762	If Idolaters will needs set up a false god for the true, is it not equal, that the true God should give them over to the false?
A67762	In the last place, Are not all wilful sinners a ● ● ant fo ● ls?
A67762	Is it not a dear purchase, an ill penniworth?
A67762	Is not he a Fool?
A67762	Kill the child in the womb, and never hurt the Mother?
A67762	Like Prisilla and Aquila, poor Tent- makers, who were able to school Apollos that great Clerk, a man renowned for his learning: What can we say to it?
A67762	Or do they desire it to any such end?
A67762	Seventhly, let me refer it to any rational man, whether the Voluptuous Prodigal is not a sta ● k Fool?
A67762	That think the v ● wed enemy of their souls, can offer them a bait without a ho ● k?
A67762	They are such cunning dissemblers, that like Pope Alexander the sixth, what they think they never speak: Why is this cast away, saith Judas?
A67762	They set their mouths against heaven, and are like an unruly Jade, that being full fed kicks at his Master; what course doth the Lord take with them?
A67762	To have as expert a tongue, and as quick a memory as Portius, a perfect understanding, great science, profound eloquence, a sweet stile?
A67762	To have the force of Demosthenes, the depth of Thesius, the perswas ● ● e art of Tully,& c. if withal he wants Grace, and lives remisly?
A67762	Was there ever such a motion made to a reasonable man?
A67762	What is the notional sweetness of honey, to the experimental taste of it?
A67762	What saies Aristotle?
A67762	What saith Aristotle?
A67762	What saith Pharaoh to his deep Counsellers?
A67762	What saith our Saviour?
A67762	When Christ taught in the Temple, they asked, How knoweth this man the Scriptures, seeing he never learned them?
A67762	Who would not have spurned such a suitor out of doors?
A67762	Why a flash of lightning should melt the sword, without making any impression in the scabbard?
A67762	Why the Load- stone should draw Iron; or inc ● ine to the pole- star?
A67762	Why the clouds above being heavy with water, should not fall to the earth suddenly, seeing every heavy thing descendeth?
A67762	With the A ● ● ronomer, to observe the motion of the heavens, while his heart is buried in the earth?
A67762	With the Historian, to know what others have done, and how they have sped, while he neglects the imitation of such as are gone the right way?
A67762	With the Law- maker, to set down many Laws in particular, and not to remember the common Law of nature, or Law general that all must die?
A67762	Yea, how little was Judas set by of the High Priests, when once he had served their turn?
A67762	Yea, what a deal of pains and care does the covetous man take for his own damnation?
A67762	are not they arrant fools?
A67762	but they are grosly mistaken: for wherein doth this their great wisdom consist?
A67762	could not Paul shew as much cunning as Tertullus?
A67762	ever tormenting himself to get that, for getting whereof, he shall be tormented?
A67762	not that there is a deficiency of power in the godly, but will: for could not David go as far as Achithophel?
A67762	the wisdom of A ● ithophel into folly ● the wisdom of Nimrod into confusion?
A67762	the wisdom of Jezabel, into a shameful death?
A67762	the wisdom of the Pharisees into a wo?
A67762	the wisdom of the unjust Steward into expulsion out of Heaven?
A67762	this divine and supernatural wisdom?
A67762	to have the theory, and be able to prattle of wisdom by rote, yet not know what it is by effect and experience?
A67762	to search out the cause of many effects, and let pass the consideration of the principal, and most necessary?
A67762	was not the wisdom of the serpent turned into a curse?
A67762	who Adam like, will receive whatever comes, or is offered them?
A67782	24 ▪ to 32. yea, is it likely that God will accept of thy dry bones when Satan hath suckt out all the marrow?
A67782	49. how glorious and wonderful, is the Maker thereof, and the City where he keeps his Court?
A67782	And how little is that man hurt, whom malice condemns on earth, and God commends in Heaven?
A67782	And indeed were it not so, what would become of us?
A67782	And what makes the difference?
A67782	And what though thy sufferings be never so sad?
A67782	And where we shall reign with Christ our Bridegroom, and be the Lambs wife?
A67782	And would you know whether you belong to Christ?
A67782	And wouldest thou know whether thou art a Beleever or no?
A67782	Art thou not as conscientious alone, and in private where God onely sees thee, as if thy greatest enemy, or all the world did behold thee?
A67782	Art thou not careful in the use of the means, to attain faith in the promise of Gods mercy made in Christ?
A67782	Art thou not evil spoken of for well doing?
A67782	As what else do these great clusters of grapes signifie?
A67782	As who would not, except Satan hath strangely bewitcht him?
A67782	Daunce hood- winked into this perdition?
A67782	Dost thou desire beauty, riches, honour, pleasure, long- life, or what ever else can be named?
A67782	Dost thou not desire and pr ● y for the salvation of others?
A67782	Dost thou not love zeal and devotion in others?
A67782	Dost thou not make conscience of sanctifying his Sabbaths?
A67782	Dost thou not more fear the want of grace then con ● ide in what thou hast?
A67782	Dost thou not rejoyce when the righteous are exalted, and grieve when the wicked bear rule?
A67782	FOurthly and lastly, these things being so; how doth it concern all, to see that they are Believers?
A67782	First, are the joyes of Heaven so unspeakable and glorious?
A67782	Heaven shall receive us, we can not conceive Heaven: Do you ask me what Heaven is saith one?
A67782	How does the assurance of the pardon of sinne alone, clear and calm all storms of the mind?
A67782	How would it charm their mouthes, apale their spirits, strike fear and astonishment into their hearts?
A67782	If he shut his ear against their prayers calling to him for pardon, that stopt their ears against hi ● Voice calling upon them for repentance?
A67782	If the Air be generally infectious, had we not need to be so much the more strict in our Diet, and carefull in the use of wholesome preservatives?
A67782	Is it not grievous to thee to hear God blasphemed, and dishonoured?
A67782	Is not Christ thy greatest joy, sin thy greatest sorrow, and grace the prime object of thy desires?
A67782	Lazarus was for a time extream miserable; what then?
A67782	No sayes he, why shovld I vex my self, because another hath vexed me?
A67782	Now what heart would not bleed to see men runne headlong into these tortures, that are thus intollerable?
A67782	Or why should I do my self a shrewd turn, because another would?
A67782	Secondly, who would not serve a short apprentiship, in Gods service here?
A67782	That he will give his heavenly and spirituall graces at the hour of death, to those who have contemned them all their life?
A67782	Thirdly, How is it possible?
A67782	What a mad conceit were this?
A67782	Whatever thou enjoyest on this side Hell, dost thou not think thy self unworthy of it?
A67782	When Pilate asked, What shall be done with Iesus?
A67782	When thou dost any thing amisse dost thou not accuse thy self?
A67782	Whether he finds not his joy to be like the joy of Harvest?
A67782	Wouldest thou be loosed from the chains of thy sins, and delivered from the chains of plagues?
A67782	Wouldest thou have the same Christ, with his precious Blood to free thee, that shall with his Word sentence others?
A67782	Wouldest thou have thy very poysons turned into cordials?
A67782	Wouldest thou then have it fare so with thee?
A67782	Yea what pain can we think too much to suffer?
A67782	Yea, is it not most just and equall if God will not be found of those that were content to lose him?
A67782	Yea, who would not be a Philpot for a moneth, or a Lazarus for a day, or a Stephen for an hour; that he might be in Abrahams bosome for ever?
A67782	and holy City?
A67782	and shall not God much mor ●, who is both the Father of mercies, and the Authour of mercy and compassion in others?
A67782	and thy greatest evils made beneficial unto thee?
A67782	he should dote upon these transitory things below; that but seriously thinks upon what is reserved for us in Heaven?
A67782	how glorious then is the Creator himself?
A67782	if any thing well, dost thou not give all the praise to God?
A67782	so if the worst of a Believers life in this world be so sweet; how sweet shall his life be in that Heavenly Ierusalem?
A67782	thy terrours, changed into pleasures?
A67782	what little enough to do?
A67782	● o 24. yea, what Father or Master will not from his young and newly weaned Child, or sick and weak servant, accept of the will for the deed?
A67763	12.18, 20. find out a name for him that takes away other mens?
A67763	A man feeds the stomach, that it may nourish and preserve his whole body: if he did not, what should he gain by it?
A67763	ANd to speak rightly, who but the Supream Magistrate hath been the cause of all?
A67763	And Gold is the covetous mans God: and will he part with his God, a certainty for an uncertainty?
A67763	And I need not ask any more, then that you would ask your own conscience, whether you would be so dealt withall?
A67763	And how could better be expected from such sons of Belial?
A67763	And in all reason, if a man be not worthy of a place, why should he have it?
A67763	And indeed: how should not that Eye be blind?
A67763	And should they not be all served alike?
A67763	And what Court was there almost, in the Land?
A67763	And what care men, so they get money, and great places?
A67763	And what is the Almighty that we should serve him?
A67763	And what man will not hazard a joynt, much more part with a little pelf to preserve his life, and all else he does enjoy?
A67763	And yet what should hinder?
A67763	Are you already inslaved to this sin?
A67763	Are you yet bewitcht with the love of money?
A67763	As what sayes the worldling?
A67763	As what will all your Honour and Greatness do you good?
A67763	As who will not give him bribes?
A67763	BUt thirdly, what good can their great wealth and honour do them, if other things concur not therewith?
A67763	But fools as they were, hovv could they finde out a better Governour?
A67763	But might not our Senators before spoken of, have said to their Soveraign ●; as Socrates said once to this unjust Iudges?
A67763	But what followes in the next verse?
A67763	But what multitudes?
A67763	But what of all this?
A67763	But what saith Solomon?
A67763	Cambyses falling in love with his Sister, asked the Iudges; whether it were lawful for him to marry her?
A67763	Did they not make it lawful to prophane the Lords Day?
A67763	Did they not make their greatness?
A67763	Did they not think, that because they were great on earth; they might be bold with heaven?
A67763	Do you make Gold your God?
A67763	Doth Covetousnesse reign in you?
A67763	For is not the City, and Country, become as a common prison of cheates?
A67763	For to speak really and impartially, what is the Iustice, the Iudge, yea, the King himself?
A67763	Have you not heard of a Lawyer?
A67763	He that goes to Law, hath a Wolf by the eares: if he prosecute his Cause, he is consumed; if he surcease his Suit, he loseth all: what difference?
A67763	How much sweeter then is the fruit of study?
A67763	How numberless are those precious Volumes, that are ever tempting us both to delight and profit?
A67763	Is your heart riveted to the Earth?
A67763	LEt these things be considered, and then tell me, whether we might not complain of our times, as the Prophets of former times, and say?
A67763	Might not the worst cause?
A67763	NOw what is the reason of all?
A67763	Nor can an honest man, buy such bargains: For how can he sell cheap, that buyes dear?
A67763	Now these things being so, let them be but seriously considered, and then say, wherein the great gain lies, that should make men desire great places?
A67763	Now, whom would not all this ravish with joy?
A67763	One asking, how he should have a Suit last him seven years?
A67763	Or shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
A67763	Or the foulest crime find favour?
A67763	Sell all that ever thou hast, and distribute unto the poor: And is there any hope of his yeelding?
A67763	Shall I not visite for these things, saith the Lord?
A67763	So you have my Apology; or if you shall further ask why I take this pains?
A67763	The un- worthy think still, Who am I not?

A67736	And doth not experience teach us, that the good are sooner perverted by the bad, then the bad converted by the good?
A67736	And if Peter walkt upon the pavement of the water, did the rest of t ● ● ● ● sciples step forth and follow him?
A67736	And indeed, why do we pray not to be led into temptation, if we lead our selves into temptation?
A67736	And was not all this, to shew us what wee should doe in the like cases?
A67736	And what else can be looked for from them?
A67736	And what if admonition and reproof be as unwelcome to thy friend, as water into a Ship?
A67736	Antisthenes being asked what fruit he had reaped of all his study?
A67736	As whom would it not stir, to hear oaths 〈 ◊ 〉 for number, with words; scoffs, with oaths; vain speeches, with both?

A67736	For what availes it to have the bodies from the same original, when the souls within them differ?

A67736	When they will think themselves slighted, if they be not sent away drunk?
A67736	When to depart sober, is 〈 ◊ 〉 incivility?
A67736	Why do we pray, deliver us from evil, but that we imply, besides all other mischiefes, that there is an infectious power in it, to make us evil?

A67736	Wilt thou neglect the office of a friend, to avoid the suspition of an enemy?
A67736	Yea, when it is not enough for them to be bad themselves, except they 〈 ◊ 〉 at the good?
A67736	Yea, who, having grace, can hear such wickednesse, and ● eeleth not some sp ● rk of holy in ● ignation arise in him, while he thinks of it?
A67736	dost thou not know, that who so will be a friend to such, makes himself the enemy of God?
A67736	hee that is evill to himself, to whom will he be good?
A67736	it may be deman ● ed; ● hould Christians be friends with them who are enemies to the Cross of Christ?

A67772	An ● how am I served accordingly?
A67772	And are they to be endured everlastingly?
A67772	And indeed, if the gates of the City be of Pearl, and the streets of Gold; what then are the inner rooms, the dining and lodging chambers?
A67772	And now for conclusion: Are the Joys of Heaven so unspeakable and glorious?
A67772	And what makes the difference?
A67772	And what shall I say more?
A67772	And withal lose their part and portion in the Kingdom of Heaven, as the Word of God expresly tells us?
A67772	As consider, If a dark dungeon here be so loathsom, what is that dungeon of eternal, of utter darkness?
A67772	As tell me, Will not their blood be required at your hands, if they perish through your neglect?
A67772	As what says the Apostle?
A67772	As, Dost thou desire beauty, riches, honour, pleasure, long life, or whatever else can be named?
A67772	As, Who would not obtain Heaven at any rate, at any cost or trouble whatsoever?
A67772	But, oh wretched Caitiff that I am; how hath the Devil and my own deceitful and devilish heart deluded me?
A67772	Christ our Redeemer and Elder- brother?
A67772	Dance hoodwinkt into this perdition?
A67772	Do we delight in good company?
A67772	Do you ask what Heaven is?
A67772	FIrst, Is it so, that the torments of Hell are so exquisite?
A67772	For as St. Paul tells us, The heart of man is not able to conceive those joyes; which being so, How should I be able to express them in words?
A67772	For if the brightness of the body shall match the Sun, what will the glory and splendour of the soul be?
A67772	For this incorruptible Crown of Glory in Heaven?
A67772	Fourthly, Is it so?
A67772	Hath Christ done so much for us, and shall we deny him any thing he requireth of us?
A67772	He who brings even idle words to judgment, and forgets not a thought of disobedience, how will he spare our gross negligence and presumption?
A67772	Hearken we unto Christs voice, in all that he saith unto us, without being swayed one way or another, as the most are?
A67772	Hell in Scripture is called a Lake, that burneth with fire and brimstone; and, than the torment of the former, what more acute?
A67772	How does this hang together?
A67772	How glorious and wonderful is the Maker thereof, and the City where he keeps his Court?
A67772	How is it that we are not more affected therewith?
A67772	How sweet then shall our knowledge in heaven be?
A67772	How then should we admire the love and bounty of God, and bless his Name, who for the performance of so small a work, hath proposed so great a Reward?
A67772	How will it end?
A67772	How wouldst thou toss and tumble, and turn from one side to another?
A67772	If material fire be so terrible, what is Hell- fire?
A67772	If the earnest penny be so precious and promising here; What shall the principal, and full crop and harvest of happiness in Heaven be?
A67772	If then the beginning and first fruits of it be so sweet, what shall the fulness of that beatifical Vision of God be?
A67772	In whom there is nothing but amiable, comfortable, delectable?
A67772	It will put thee to a demur, What have I done?
A67772	Now consider, Is one hours twitche of the worm of conscience here?
A67772	Now what heart would not bleed, to see men run headlong into those tortures that are thus intolerable?
A67772	Oh that men would believe the God of truth( that can not lye) touching spiritual and eternal things, but as they do these temporary and transitory?
A67772	Or in case we have peace of conscience, alas, how often is it interrupted with anguish of spirit?
A67772	Or that light from whence it receives its light?
A67772	SEcondly, Are the Joys of Heaven so unspeakable and glorious?
A67772	The Angels and Saints our Comforts and Companions?
A67772	The holy Ghost our Comforter?
A67772	Then wilt thou say, O that I had been more wise, or that I were now to begin my life again; then would I contemn the world with all its vanities?
A67772	What am I now aabout?
A67772	What is a thousand years?
A67772	What is eternity of hell torments?
A67772	What little enough to do, to obtain eternity?
A67772	What pleasure shall we take in the company of Saints and Angels?
A67772	What then can be more equal, then that thou shouldst suffer everlastingly?
A67772	What then will it be to lie in flames of fire?
A67772	What though it be usual with men, to have no sense of their souls till they must leave their bodies?
A67772	What will it be to enjoy the immediate presence, and glory of God our Father?
A67772	What''s a Fetter to a Dungeon?
A67772	Whether he finds not his joy to be like to the joy of harvest?
A67772	Whether will this course tend?
A67772	While we are here, how many clouds of discontent have we to darken the Sunshine of our Joy?
A67772	Who would not serve a short Apprenticeship in Gods service here, to be made for ever free in glory?
A67772	Will it not be sad to have Children and Servants rise up in judgment against you, and to bring in Evidence at the great Tribunal of Christ?
A67772	Will not this be sad?
A67772	Yea more, is Heaven so unspeakably sweet and delectable, is Hell so unutterably doleful?
A67772	Yea, are all these, and all other pains that can be named put together, but shadows and flea- bitings to it?
A67772	Yea, how can we be thankful enough for so great a blessing?
A67772	Yea, how little, how nothing, are the poor and temporary enjoyments of this life, to those we shall enjoy in the next?
A67772	Yea, how oft do those Russians that deny God at the Tap- house, preach him at the Gallows?
A67772	Yea, is one minutes twitch of a tooth pulling out so unsufferable?
A67772	Yea, what pain can we think too much to suffer?
A67772	Yea, who can utter the sweetness of that peace of Conscience, and spiritual rejoycing in God, which himself hath tasted?
A67772	Yea, who would not be a Philpot for a month, or a Lazarus for a day, or a Stephen for an hour, that he might be in Abrahams bosome for ever?
A67772	a Gallows to Hell- fire?
A67772	and confess that in sincerity of heart, which they oppugned in wantonness?
A67772	how would it charm their mouths, appall their spirits, strike fear and astonishment into their hearts?
A67772	or as men rejoyce when they divide a spoil?
A67772	than the smell of the latter, what more noysome?
A67772	the presence chamber of the great Monarch of Heaven and Earth?
A67772	the torments of Hell so woful and dolorous?
A67772	those delights and pleasures, that are reserved for the glorified Saints, and Gods dearest darlings in heaven?
A67772	what then may we think of the maker and builder thereof?
A67781	14 and indeed if they are spiritually discerned, how should they descern them that have not the spirit?
A67781	15. to the hardning of many in their Atheism, and Unbelief: For what should hinder?
A67781	Again, Fifthly, how does lust blinde and besot men?
A67781	Again, If it be asked, Why the natural man perceiveth not the things of the spirit of God?
A67781	And in another place; Know ye not, that the amity of the world, is the enmity of God?
A67781	And what greater folly?
A67781	And what is the cause they acknowledg not the same now, but their blindness and folly?
A67781	And what is the summa totalis of all but this?
A67781	Are not these so many infallible properties of a fool?
A67781	As how often is that spent upon one Christmas revelling by the son, which was forty years a getting by the Father?
A67781	BUt would these men( any one, even the best of them) thus improve, or imploy their knowledge?
A67781	Besides, if these great knowers know so little, how ignorant are the rude rabble, that despise all knowledge?
A67781	Briefly, how oft doth wisdom without grace prove like a fair estate in the hands of a sool, which not seldom becomes the owners ruine?
A67781	But If you would know how to call them, they are properly subtle persens?
A67781	But Sixthly, what can we think of an improvident Gamester?
A67781	But how shall a man know, whether he hath this knowledge?
A67781	But what can the Prince of darknesse propound?
A67781	But why?
A67781	Did our Saviour Christ forbear to heal on the Sabbath day, because the Scribes and Pharisees took it ● ll?
A67781	Fourthly, what think you of common Idolaters?
A67781	How could hee other then thinke, if lust had not blinded and bewitched him?
A67781	How did they shake him off in that pittiful distresse, with look thou to it?
A67781	How the heat of the stomach, and the strength of the nether chap should be so great?
A67781	How the waters should stand upon a heap, and yet not over- flow the earth?
A67781	If Idolaters will need set up a false god for the true, is it not equal, that the true God should give them over to the false?
A67781	In the last place, Are not all wilfull sinners arrant fools?
A67781	Is it not a dear purchase?
A67781	Is it not the manner of thousands with us?
A67781	Kill the Child in the womb, and never hurt the Mother?
A67781	Or do they desire it to any such end?
A67781	Or that Germain Clow ●, who under- took to be very ready in the ten Commandments: but being demanded by the Minister which was the first?
A67781	Paul a polluter of the Temple?
A67781	Seventhly, let me refer it to any rational man, whether the Voluptuous Prodigal is not a stark Fool?
A67781	She whose body is mercenary to me, will easily fell me to others?
A67781	Steven a destroyer of the Law?
A67781	Tell me, wherewith thou mayest be bound to do thee hurt?
A67781	That think the vowed enemy of their souls, can offer them a bait without a hook?
A67781	They set their mouths against heaven, and are like an unruly Jade, that being full fed kicks at his Master; what course doth the Lord take with them?
A67781	Thirdly, are the one regenerate, the other carnall?
A67781	To have as expert a tongue, and as quick a memory as Portius; a perfect understanding, great science, profound eloquence, a sweet stile?
A67781	To have the force of Demosthenes, the depth of Thesius, the perswasive art of Tully,& c. if withal he wants Grace, and lives remissely?
A67781	VVhat cause have we then to blesse the giver?
A67781	Was it not an a gu ● ● nt that Haman was blinde?
A67781	Was not Ahab blinde?
A67781	Was not the wisdome of the Serpent turned into a curse?
A67781	Was there ever such a motion made to a reasonable man?
A67781	We fools thought his life madnesse, and his end to be without honour: How is he now numbred with the children of God, and his lot among the Saints?
A67781	Were not the Jews, Scribes& Pharisees blind, who could see more unlawfulness in the Disciples plucking a few ears of Corn on the sabbath- day?
A67781	What communion between light and darknesse?
A67781	What hath pride profited us?
A67781	What is the notional sweetness of Honey, to the experimental taste of it?
A67781	What saith Aristotle?
A67781	What saith Pharaoh to his deep Counsellors?
A67781	What saith our Saviour?
A67781	What sayes Aristotle?
A67781	When Christ taught in the Temple, they asked, Hovv knovveth this man the Scriptures, seeing he never learned them?
A67781	Who would not have spurned such a sutor out of doors?
A67781	Why a flash of lightening should melt the sword without making any impression in the scabbard?
A67781	Why is this cast away, saith Iudas?
A67781	Why the Loadstone should draw iron, or incline to the pole- star?
A67781	Why the clouds above being heavie with water, should not fall to the earth suddenly, seeing every heavy thing descendeth?
A67781	Will the Merchant be discouraged because his wine pleaseth not a sicke mans palate?
A67781	With the Astronomer, to observe the motions of the heavens; while his heart is buried in the earth?
A67781	With the Historian, to know what others have done, and how they have sped; while he neglecteth the imitation of such, as are gone the right way?
A67781	With the Law- maker, to set down many Lawes in particular, and not to remember the common Law of nature, or Law general that all must die?
A67781	Yea, how little was Judas set by of the High Priests, when once he had served their turn?
A67781	Yea, how severely will they censure, not only things indifferent, but the most holy and approved good duties in the godly?
A67781	Yea, what a deale of paines and care does the covetous man take for his own damnation?
A67781	Yea, when it was said of Phocian and Demosthenes, that they could never agree; it was answered, No, how should they?
A67781	Yea, will they not more deeply censure our serving of God, then their own blaspheming of him?
A67781	an ill penni- worth?
A67781	and be themselves the greatest of sinners, then our Saviour to be in company with sinners?
A67781	and the Palsie man''s carrying his bed; then in their own devouring of Widows houses?
A67781	are not they arrant fools?
A67781	but they are grosly mistaken: for wherein does this their great wisdom consist?
A67781	could not Paul shew as much cunning as Tertullus?
A67781	is not he a Fool?
A67781	not that there is a deficiency of power in the godly, but will: for could not David go as far as Achitophel?
A67781	or what good hath our riches and our vaunting brought us?
A67781	the one Christs friends, the other his enemies?
A67781	the one children of light, and of the day, the other blinde and in darknesse?
A67781	the one of this world, the other chosen out of it?
A67781	the wisdome of Achitophel into folly?
A67781	the wisdome of Jezabel, into a shameful death?
A67781	the wisdome of Nimrod into confusion?
A67781	the wisdome of the Pharisees into a woe?
A67781	the wisdome of the unjust Steward into expulsion out of Heaven?
A67781	this divine and supernatural wisdom?
A67781	to have the theory,& be able to prattle of wisdom by rote; yet not know what it is by effect and experience?
A67781	to search out the cause of many effects, and let pass the consideration of the principal, and most necessary?
A67781	what peace between the Believer and the Infidel?
A67781	who Adam- like, will receive what- ever comes, or is offered them?
A67781	who thought Mordecaies not bowing the knee to hi ●, a more heinous offence, then his own murthering of thousands?
A67781	who thought they might better murther Christ, then others believe in him?
A67765	10. and how should it be otherwise with these Misers?
A67765	11. and why can I not thus solace my self while it is anothers?
A67765	12. but even lavish& wherle away whole patrimonies; yea, most wickedly spend them in riot, and upon Dice, Drabs, Drunkenness?
A67765	30?
A67765	78. when they said, Can God furnish a table in the Wilderness?
A67765	Alass, how often does riches, without Gods blessing upon them, prove or become the owners ruine?
A67765	And Gold is the covetous mans god, and will he part with his God, a certainty for an uncertainty?
A67765	And indeed, what great difference is there, save in the pride and covetousness of a mans mind?
A67765	And is not this thy very case that art covetous?
A67765	And is this a small matter?
A67765	And what but Idleness makes so many beggers, and base persons?
A67765	And what knowest thou?
A67765	And when King Agis requested the Oracle of Apollo to tell him, who was the happiest man in the world?
A67765	And who hath more interest in the grape, then he that planted the Vine?
A67765	And why should I prefer him before a piece of copper, that prefers a piece of gold before his Maker?
A67765	Ann why all this?
A67765	As how many of our over- reachers have over- reached themselves so far?
A67765	As tell me, will it be any desertlesse office, to find out a way to help all this?
A67765	As what common and daily experience have we thereof, had men but the wit to observe it?
A67765	As what saith our Saviour?
A67765	As what will some Momus say?
A67765	As who, or where, is the man that desires not to be rich and happy?
A67765	As, what is the reason that there are few rich men that will not rather offend the Divine Majesty, then the Temporal Authority?
A67765	Besides( which would also be thought upon) what should we have if we did truly love and serve Christ?
A67765	Can he provide flesh for his people?
A67765	Can we not warm us at the Sun, but we must make an Idoll of it to worship?
A67765	Cease from thy wisdome, wilt thou cast thine eyes upon that, which is nothing?
A67765	Christianum dogma, vertitur in scomma, and what''s the reason but this?
A67765	For why is their ruine recorded?
A67765	For, Tenthly, doth covetousness reign in a man?
A67765	Have ye not heard of a prodigal young heir?
A67765	He smote the Rock that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; but can be give bread also?
A67765	How carefully then should we avoid those actions which may ever stain us?
A67765	How does he turmoile and vex his spirit, torment his conscience, and make himself a very map of misery, and a sink of calamity?
A67765	How does the covetous mans heart droop wish his Mammon?
A67765	How many had been good?
A67765	I know this is such a paradox to misers, and men of the world; that nothing seems to them more absurd and ridiculous: what?
A67765	If any shall ask why the godly are not alwayes, nor oft rich, notwithstanding these promises?
A67765	If our prosperity hath made the world our God: how worthily shall our death- bed be choaked with such an exprobration?
A67765	Is it Gods unspeakable mercy, that we are not at this present frying in Hell flames, never to be freed, and do we complain for want of a trifle?
A67765	NOw why are godly Christians so content with a little?
A67765	Nay, to abound with all things, and to be never the better for them, not to partake of them, what fool or mad man hath been known so senseless?
A67765	Nay, why hath God spared thee, so long as he hath?
A67765	Now ask the covetous muckworm, whether had you rather lack with those Saints, or abound with the devil and the rich man?
A67765	Or who will not be willing to sow plentifully, where he shall reap plentifully?
A67765	Pyrrhus opened himself to his friend Cineas, that he first intended a war upon Italy, and what then said Cineas?
A67765	Righteous art thou, O Lord, when I speak with thee, yet let me talk with thee of thy judgements; wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper?
A67765	Sell all that ever thou hast, and distribute unto the poor: And is there any hope of his yeelding?
A67765	Tamberlain having overcome Bajazet, he asked him whether he had ever given God thanks, for making him so great an Emperour?
A67765	The covetous Mammonist does insatiably thirst after riches, placing all his joyes, hopes, and delights thereon; does he not then make them his God?
A67765	The wise and godly are of Pythagoras his minde: who being asked why he cared no more for riches?
A67765	What hope hath the hypocrite saith Job, when he hath heaped up riches; will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?

A67765	What saith the Wiseman?
A67765	What sayes Solomon?
A67765	What was Haman the better for all he had, when the King frowned upon him?
A67765	When the hand of God hath never so little touched thee, what good thy great wealth will do thee?
A67765	Wherefore hearke n to this, all you self- lovers, that are only for your own ends: Do you indeed love your selves?
A67765	Who more right to the crop, then he that oweth the ground, and soweth the seed?

A67765	Why did Ammon draw out two years breath?
A67765	Why then do you set so high a price upon them?
A67765	Yea all wicked men make the devil their god; for why does Saint Paul call the devil the god of this world?
A67765	Yea how oft is that spent upon one Christmas revelling by the son, which was fourty yeers a getting by the Father?
A67765	Yea, how many have we known in this City?
A67765	Yea, thou that placest thy happinesse, and puttest thy confidence in a little white and red earth; and dotest so upon the world, tell me?
A67765	Yea, what can any wise man think of them, are they not stark mad?
A67765	Yea, who more needy, and who run more in debt than those, that have hundreds and thousands a year?
A67765	and how thankful should we strive to be?
A67765	and impotent contentments of men, that place their happinesse in these things: will not this your fair Herodias, appear as a stigmatized Gipsie?
A67765	and is he once inslaved to this sin?
A67765	and so shamefully undervalue the riches of the minde?
A67765	and to make the most poor and melancholy the richest and happiest men alive?
A67765	and who more merry then they?
A67765	and your souls?
A67765	are they not fooles in folio?
A67765	but they that are most obeyed?
A67765	he was condemned that encreased not the sum concredited to him, what then shall become of him that lawlessely and lavishly spends and impaires it?
A67765	how are they immerged in the horrors of a vulned conscience?
A67765	is he bewitcht with the love of money?
A67765	is his heart rivited to the earth?
A67765	or how should they not preferre temporal things, before coelestial and eternal?
A67765	or the happier for being lift up the ladder, when he was to come down again with a rope?
A67765	or when did God require this of his servants?
A67765	perswade them that giving away their goods, is the way to increase them?
A67765	that he may be content, and satisfied therewith, How should God bestow this great blessing of contentation upon him, and a true use of his riches?
A67765	then we may conquer Carthage and Affrica; and what then said Cineas?
A67765	then we will attempt Cicile, and what then?
A67765	what do they indure?
A67765	wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously?
A67765	would you be rich indeed, and that both here and hereafter?
A67765	yea God sayes, lend, clothe, feed, harbor; The devil and Mammon, say, take, gather, extort, oppress, spoil; whether of these are our gods?
A97246	& c. How then can it bee expected that the Visible Church now, should be without hypocrites in it?
A97246	& c. In all which thou doest lye, and dissemble most egregiously: for doest thou love God deerly?

A97246	And as for lying, and commanding others to ly, what more usuall?
A97246	And did not our Prelates deale just so with the Puritans, in their reports to the King?

A97246	For have they committed such and such sinnes, and so broken their promise and vow made unto God in baptisme?
A97246	For who are these verball, orrall, occular professors?
A97246	Gen. 27. who made her weary of her life: and forced her to cry out in the bitternesse of her soule, What availeth it me to live?

A15848	If every thing were unlike him, how is it possible he should love us?
A15848	If wee be sicke, and the Physitian promises to visit us to morrow with his best reliefe, with what a tedious longing doe we expect his presence?
A15848	If you endure chastning, God offereth himselfe unto you as unto sonnes: for what sonne is it whom the Father chasteneth not?
A15848	In these cases how full of life and spirit, and holy impatiency did he shew himselfe to be?
A15848	Indeed what have we by our second birth, which is not miraculous in comparison of our natural condition?
A15848	Is any one afflicted?
A15848	It may bee his naturall, spirituall, or politicall parents, in some kinde or other: as who can plead innocency herein?
A15848	It remaines in the last place that I declare the Reasons, why God permits his dearest children so to be afflicted?
A15848	Let a man but fast a meale or two, oh how sweet is browne bread, though it would not down before?
A15848	Let him draw neere, for I chiefly direct my speech unto him: are afflictions and persecutions so necessary and profitable, as hath beene shewed?
A15848	Now if we could but remember and lay to heart these promises, when wee feele the greatest assaults or pangs, how could wee want courage?
A15848	Now if we make this use of our sufferings, what more precious than the reproaches of an enemy?
A15848	Now if ● hy very enemies thus honour thee, how should thy friends( bought with thy precious bloud) glorifie thee?
A15848	Now instead of being overcome, dost thou overcome?
A15848	Now what is it that we suffer, being compared with their sufferings?
A15848	Now what makes the difference?
A15848	Now whether had you rather rejoyce for one fit, or alwayes?

A15848	Now who will esteeme those things good which make us worse, or, that evill, which brings such gaine and sweetnesse?
A15848	Now who would not be willing to bleed, when by that meanes an inveterate sicknesse may be prevented?
A15848	Now, what sonne of Israel can hope for any good dayes, when hee heares his fathers were so evill?

A15848	Revenge being one of those remedies which( not seldome) proves more grievous than the disease it selfe?
A15848	Satan begd his shame, who envied his successe?
A15848	Shall we receive good at the hands of God, and not evill?
A15848	Shall we slight all his blessings, because in one thing he crosseth us, whereas his least mercy is beyond our best merit?
A15848	Slay them?
A15848	So, what a degree of patience have some men attained unto?
A15848	The godly are so patient in their sufferings?

A15848	Why were they so long kept from it?
A15848	Why?
A15848	Will any make choyse of a weake Champion?
A15848	Will you take Saint Pauls word for it, or rather GODS owne word, who is truth it selfe, and can not lye?
A15848	Wilt thou, saith one, looke to raigne, and not expect to suffer?
A15848	Without thee, what can we suffer?
A15848	Wouldst thou have faith?

A67743	9.12 but how?
A67743	Again, Why these, and a thousand more in all ages shut up in prison?
A67743	Againe doe you pay God his dues also: doe you repent, and beleeve the Gospell: precepts and menaces, as well as promises?
A67743	Againe, Why would they kill our bodies, but because they could not slay our soules?
A67743	Againe, why doe these men inveigh and preach against preaching?
A67743	And Saul touching David?
A67743	And have not we the like murmurers?
A67743	And have they not reason thus to do?
A67743	And indeed, Who should goe to Hell, if cursers should be left out?
A67743	And indeed, how should they, when every word they speake is a slander?
A67743	And indeed, what is the corporal sympathy to the spiritual antipathy?
A67743	And indeed, whom not heroicall in fortitude( the case standing as it doth) would it not discourage and beat back to the world?
A67743	And is it not iust with God, to say, they would none of Christ, let them welcome Sathan and Antichrist?
A67743	And lastly, by whom was our Saviour Christ betrayed, bu ● by his owne Disciple Iudas?
A67743	And must not hee who is called a Puritan, be derided, hated, persecuted, slandered and laught to scorne?
A67743	And must not these mens consciences tell them, that the same they accuse so, are in their lives the most unreproveable of the Land?
A67743	And shall not men tremble to deny, what the Devils confesse?
A67743	And so fight under Sathans banner against Gods people: And yet take your selves to bee( not Sathans but) Gods servants?
A67743	And that whosoever will be a friend of the World maketh him ● elfe the enemy of God?
A67743	And the Master himselfe?

A67743	And what do the Cavaliers now, in killing the Saints?
A67743	And what is it that Iobs Wife expostulates with him about, but his integrity?
A67743	And what is light to him, that will shut his eyes against it?
A67743	And what is meant by these words?

A67743	And what''s the reason they curse us, but this?
A67743	And wherefore is the Devill called by that name, but by reason of his foul mouth in defaming?

A67743	And who but Ieremies familiars watched for his haulting?
A67743	And why all this?
A67743	Are not the members of Christ more hated, and worse intreated by us, then the limbs of the Devill?
A67743	Are ye Christians in earnest?
A67743	As how many a Wife is so much the more hated, because a zealous Wife?
A67743	As what can bee further expected?
A67743	As what makes them contemne us, but, together with pride, their ignorance?

A67743	But Saint Chrysostome, in opening of those words saith, Nay rather, Who is not against us, if God be with us?
A67743	But how can God be the Author of it, without being the Author of Sin?

A67743	Doe you not sharpen your tongues in gall; and dip your pens in poyson, to disgrace the graces of God in his children?
A67743	For if Christians be charged to blesse their enemies; what will bee their case, that curse their friends?
A67743	For if they be spiritually discerned, how should they discern them, that have not the Spirit?
A67743	For, what is the notionall sweetnesse of honey, to the experimentall taste of it?
A67743	HOw is it, that the practice of Christianity is every where spoken against, under the name of Schisme, as the chiefe Iewes told Paul in his time?
A67743	Hath God made any promise to Scoffers?
A67743	Hee that is so frighted with a squib, how would he endure the mouth of a Cannon?
A67743	How contrary are good Angels and evill men?
A67743	How contrary are they?
A67743	How doth that appeare?
A67743	How is that proved?
A67743	How many a Childe lesse beloved, because a religious Childe?
A67743	How many a Servant lesse respected, because a godly Servant?
A67743	How should Naboth be cleanly put to death, if he be not first accused of blasphemy?
A67743	I will put enmity betweene the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman, Gen. 3.15?
A67743	I, but what have they whereupon to ground their accusations?
A67743	IN the last place what are the Actuall Properties?
A67743	If Sampson be thus punished, shal the Philistims escape?
A67743	If the godly suffer so many, and grievous afflictions here; what shall his adversaries suffer in hell?
A67743	If the righteous shall scarcely be saved, were shall the ungodly and sinner appeare?
A67743	If they have called the Master of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his household?
A67743	Is it any strange thing, to see a blinde man stumble and fall?
A67743	Is it done in faith, and out of right ends as out of love, and obedience?
A67743	Is it not a capitall crime to bee vertuous?
A67743	Is not the name of an honest man, who makes conscience of his wayes, growne odious?
A67743	Is the World mended with age?
A67743	Is this Christian- like?
A67743	It s true, but in what sense?
A67743	Know ye not, that to whom ye yeeld your selves as servants to obey; his servants ye are to whom ye obey?
A67743	Know yee not( saith St. Iames) that the Amity of the World, is the Enmity of God?
A67743	Loe here is reward enough for all that men or divills can do against us: And what will not men undergoe, so their reward may be answerable?
A67743	Nay( if I may speak it with reverence) what meanes can God use that shall be able to convert such an one?
A67743	Neither want we precedents of this; For, by whom was upright Abel persecuted and slain, but by his owne brother Caine?
A67743	Not some, but all: and what all, but even all that will live godly?
A67743	Now if it be askt, Why a naturall man perceiveth not the things of the Spirit of God?
A67743	Objection, But you will say, what is this to us?
A67743	Or are you wiser then all?
A67743	Or can the Crosse of Christ, save them that continue malitious enemies to his Crosse?
A67743	Or hath he spoaken the word, and shall not hee accomplish it?
A67743	Or if otherwise, they look on our infirmities, they looke not on our graces, on our repentance?
A67743	Or must the name of a Puritan, dishearten us from the service of God?
A67743	Or shall he not depart Sodom, because the whole City thinkes it better to stay there still?
A67743	Or what is this but want of discretion?
A67743	Q WHat Uses may this serve for, which hath been spoken touching the properties of this enmity, and our Saviours suffering?
A67743	Q WHat are the Causes, why wicked and ungodly men thus hate, and persecute the religious?
A67743	See this in Abrahams example, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do?
A67743	Shall Noah leave building the Arke, and so himselfe, and his whole houshould perish, because all the World else thinkes him haire- brained?
A67743	Shall the powder thinke to blow up the house, and scape it selfe from burning?
A67743	That have a Library of Divinity in their heads, and not so much as the least Catechisme in their consciences?
A67743	The Apostle saith, If God be on our side, who can be against us?
A67743	The Corinthians exceedingly slighted Paul, he was this and he was that; But what saith Pa ● l?
A67743	True these enemies to holines spare not to cast asper ● ● ions on us, else how should they worke their wills?
A67743	WHat are their Verball properties?
A67743	WHat instruction from the premisses?
A67743	WHat is promised shall be the issue, or effect of it; and who shall get the victory?
A67743	WHat is the original ground of the worlds hatred?
A67743	WHat is the second Cause, why ungodly men hate and persecute the religious?
A67743	WHat is the third cause, why ungodly men hate and persecute the Religious?
A67743	WHat is their manner of venting this Enmity?
A67743	WHerein consists their unlikenesse and contrariety?
A67743	We are bound to praise GOD above any Nation whatsoever,( for what Nation under Heaven in ● oyes so much light, or so many blessings as we?)
A67743	What Devill will so affirme?
A67743	What God can deliver out of my hand?
A67743	What a prodigy is this?
A67743	What can hee not perswade them to?

A67743	What honour of Christ is there among us, wher Religion makes one contemptible?
A67743	What instruction affords this?
A67743	What is it to him if the superstition, and blindnesse of Popery did over- shadow the Land?
A67743	What is meant by the woman and her seed?
A67743	What may bee gathered from these tearmes thus explicated?
A67743	What occasioned the Lord to proclaime this enmity?
A67743	What saith one?
A67743	What saith the Scripture?
A67743	What say they?
A67743	What should I say?
A67743	What was it but Iosephs goodnesse, that brought him to the stockes and Irons?
A67743	What was the finall cause or end why God proclaimed it?
A67743	What was their delinquencie?
A67743	What way wee gleane from hence?
A67743	What will you be singular?
A67743	Wherefore slew Caine his brother, saith Saint Iohn, but because his own Workes were evill, and his brothers good?
A67743	Who could have lesse deserved those curses, those aspersions, those stones, then David?
A67743	Who helped to burne Bradford?

A67743	Who scoffed at righteous Noah, but his owne son Cham?
A67743	Who was the Author and proclamor of it?
A67743	Why did Esau hate Iacob, and purpose to kill him, but because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him?
A67743	Why not unto death?
A67743	Why was Ioseph accused of his Mistris for an adulterer, and thereupon committed to prison, but because hee would not bee an Adulterer like her?
A67743	Yea, and thinke they doe as good service in it, as Secretaries, and Espialls of Princes, do to the State, when they bring in bills of intelligence?
A67743	Yea, have you not strange conceits, and base thoughts of the best men?
A67743	Yea, if the feare of the Lord, as Solomon speakes, is the beginning of wisdome, how should they have wisdome, that have not the feare of the Lord?
A67743	Yea, who was his greatest enemy but his greatest friend, even one of his houshold- Chaplains?
A67743	Yes: for how is a vicious person discredited, and made contemptible, by the vertuous life of an holy man?
A67743	Yet the world traduced him for a Samaritan, a Blasphemer, a Sorcerer, a wine- bibber, an enemy to Caesar, and what not?
A67743	and also bring forth the fruits of it in your lif and conversation?
A67743	and for sins of omissions,& c?
A67743	and made them resolve against goodness?
A67743	and religion foolishnesse with Michal?
A67743	and see that all under you doe the same?
A67743	and staggered others, that have made some progresse in holinesse?
A67743	and thinke the worse of a man, for having of a tender conscience?
A67743	and what instructions afford they?
A67743	and with the understanding also?
A67743	but because he followed the things which were good and pleasing unto God and in him part his trust?
A67743	but because he should bee more exalted?
A67743	doe you declare your faith by your workes?
A67743	doe you feare an oath?

A67743	doe you not with Festus, account zeale madnesse?
A67743	doe you pray by the power of the spirit?
A67743	doe you receive the word with good and honest hearts?
A67743	doe you sanctifie his Sabbaths?
A67743	for the evill which cleaves to your very best actions?
A67743	grieve for your unprofitablenesse under the meanes of grace?
A67743	hate a lye,& c?
A67743	instruct your children and servants, and teach them to feare the Lord?
A67743	killed, but for the Word of God, and for the testimony which they maintained?
A67743	love his children, promote his glory, and strive to gaine others to imbrace the Gospell?
A67743	love zeale, and devotion in others?
A67743	make conscience of evill thoughts?
A67743	or do you not?
A67743	reade, conferre and meditate upon it?
A67743	saith God, why?
A67743	the which scriptures, if they bee true?
A67743	they think themselves the worst of sinners?
A67743	though hee thrust himselfe into their company?
A67743	vaine, and unprofitable words?
A67743	watch for their halting, and combine with others against them?
A67743	what stuffe so pittifull, but hee can set a glosse upon it?
A67743	who is not an open or secret enemy to holinesse?
A67743	yea, have you not beaten off many from being religious by your scoffes and reproaches?
A67778	( I mean) thy soul; free?
A67778	1. and that God esteems of Faith above all other graces, deeds, or acts of thine?
A67778	19. that hee was able to say, Though I should walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evill: Why?
A67778	21. and as heartily and unfaignedly desire that thou maist never commit it, as that God should never impute it?
A67778	26. but even) the least parcell of Gods Word into thy mouth?
A67778	5. yet hee neglects coming for many days, lets him die, bee put in the grave untill hee stank; but what of all this?
A67778	Admit thou art a great sinner, what then?
A67778	Again, shall it ever enter into our hearts, to think that God gives us rules to keep, and yet break them himsef?
A67778	Alas, what can they do?
A67778	And Pope Adrian, who when hee was to dye; brake out into this expression: Oh my soul, whither art thou going?
A67778	And against whom hast thou exalted thy self?
A67778	And dost thou make thy slight sufferings an argument of his displeasure?
A67778	And doth her adversary vex her sore, year by year; and grievously upbraid her for it, so that she is troubled in her minde?
A67778	And have not some been detained( by a violent storme) from coming home, whereby they have been exempt from seeling the down- fall of their house?
A67778	And herein wee ● … re no worse, than C ● … st; Did not his Spirit pass from the Cross, into Paradice?
A67778	And how profitable is that affliction, which carrieth me to Heaven?
A67778	And in reason; did hee come to call sinners to repentance, and shall he not shew mercy to the penitent?
A67778	And indeed, how many have we known the better for their sin?
A67778	And lastly, shall our momentany sufferings be rewarded with everlasting glory?
A67778	And may not this comfort thee?
A67778	And see what cause he had so to say; what were these Arrows?
A67778	And the Apostles esteemed it a grace, to be disgraced for him: and shall we grumble, or think much at it?
A67778	And what though thou canst not powr out thy soul in a flood of words?
A67778	And when he hath leave from God, what can hee do?
A67778	And wherein does thy case differ?
A67778	And whether had you rather rejoice for one ● … it, or alwaies?
A67778	And why all this?
A67778	And why doth the goodness of our God pick out the most needfull times for our relief and comfort?
A67778	And yet thou exceptest thy self, hee excludes none; and dost thou exclude one, and that one thy self?
A67778	Are not your failings, your grief?
A67778	Are these stripes the chiefest tokens and pledges of God''s love and adoption?
A67778	Are thy sins great?
A67778	Are we bound to perform perfect obedience to the Law?
A67778	As what saith Luther of the whole Turkish Empire?
A67778	Ask not( saith Salvianus) why one is greater, another less; one wretched, another happy?
A67778	Besides, without some kinde of suffering, how shall your sincerity be approved?
A67778	But all the evill thou doest to the godly, is with thy tongue?
A67778	But how in this case?
A67778	But may some say, Can any good come out of such a Nazarite?
A67778	But tell me, hath not this roaring Lion prevailed against thy best part?
A67778	But to leave examples; and come to reason: Is it not an evident sign, that if the world hates thee, thou art none of the World?
A67778	But what hath been the answer of GOD alwaies to his children, in such their extasies, but this?
A67778	But what''s the reason?
A67778	But when will there bee an end of this long disease?
A67778	But who can measure thy goodnesse, who givest all, and forgivest all?
A67778	But why dost thou not altogether believe, that it is a blessed and happie thing thus to suffer?
A67778	Can not our enemies diminish one hair of our heads, without God''s special leave and appointment?
A67778	Did God and Belial joyn in fu filling the same act?
A67778	Did ever any sinner implore the forgiveness of his sins, which did not receiv full remission and pardon?
A67778	Did hee not without the Sun at the Creation, cause light to shine forth; and without rain, at the same time, make the earth fruitfull?
A67778	Did it ever repent Jacob, when hee came to inherit his Fathers blessing, that hee had indured a long exile, and tedious bondage?
A67778	Did not hee first descend into Hel, and then had his ascension?
A67778	Did not the sick ever receive their health?
A67778	Dost thou determine to continue in the practice of any one sin?
A67778	Dost thou not love rather to bee, than seem or bee thought good; and seek more the power of godliness, than the shew of it?
A67778	Doth Satan merit thanks?
A67778	Doth he make bloody wayls on the backs of his Children?
A67778	Doth not God onely gain glory by our sufferings?
A67778	Doth the rain and waters, or any other creature displease you?
A67778	For consider, doth the Lord say hee will extend his mercie unto all that come unto him?
A67778	For, what can be spoken more expresse, direct, and significant?
A67778	God used the malice of Pharaoh and Shimei unto good; what then?
A67778	Hast thou but thoughts and desires, and canst thou onely express them with sighs and groans?
A67778	Hast thou kept thy head whole?
A67778	Hath he promised that we shall not be tempted above our strength?
A67778	Hath this Lion yielded thee any Honey of Instruction, or Reformation?
A67778	Hath thy sin died with thy fame, or with thy health, or with thy peace, or with thy outward estate?
A67778	Heaven it self shall power down the food of Angels; have they no meat to their bread?
A67778	Hee sends his Serjeant 〈 ◊ 〉 arrest thee for thy debt; commands thee and all thou hast to bee 〈 ◊ 〉 But why?
A67778	Hee would have all men saved, and thou comest in with thy exceptive, All but mee; Why thee?
A67778	How can we but say, Let the World frown, and all things in it run cross to the grain of our mindes?
A67778	How is that?
A67778	How many?
A67778	How opportunely doth God provide succours to our distresses?
A67778	How rashly then hast thou judged of thy Makers dealing with thee?
A67778	If it bee asked why God reckons so highly of a sew sighs and groans?
A67778	If wee bee sick, and the Physician promises to visit us to morrow with his best relief; with what a tedious longing do wee expect his presence?
A67778	If you endure chastening, God offereth himself unto you, as unto sons: for what son is it whom the Father chastenith not?
A67778	Indeed, it was Pilates brag to Christ, knowest thou not that I have power to crucifie thee?
A67778	Is God more specially present with us in afflictions?
A67778	Lastly, look upon Lazarus, though Christs bosome friend?
A67778	Let him draw near, for I chiefly direct my speech unto him: Are afflictions and persecutions so necessary and profitable, as hath been shewed?
A67778	Neither wants hee ca ● … e; hee that numbers our very hairs, what account doth hee make of our souls?
A67778	Never were the Jews more to bee pitied, than when their Prophet delivered these words from the Lord, why should yee bee stricken any more?
A67778	Nor love, for if hee hath bought us with his blood, and given us himself, will hee deny us any thing that is good for us?
A67778	Now Lord it being thus with us, how can we expect that thou shouldest hear our praiers,& grant our requests?
A67778	Now if Saul or Doeg be instead of a Pestilence or Feaver; who can cavil?
A67778	Now if that bosom wherein we all look to rest, was assaulted with so many sore trials, and so diverse difficulties, is it likely we should escape?
A67778	Now instead of being overcome doest thou overcome?
A67778	Now the Tenant is more noble then the House; therefore why are we not more joyed in this, then dejected in the other?
A67778	Now what Son of Israel can hope for any good daies, when he heats his Fathers were so evill?
A67778	Now when so much was uttered, even by a none- such for his patience; what may we think he did feel, and indure?
A67778	Now why doth God by his promise tye himself to bee present with us; more especially in affliction?
A67778	O fool?
A67778	Oh, it is a good change, to have the fire of affliction for the fire of Hell: Who would not rather smart for a while, then for ever?
A67778	Or Joseph, when hee was once made Ruler in Egypt, that he had formerly been sold thither and there imprisoned?
A67778	Or which of Gods servants did ever repent that they had passed the apprentiship of their service here, and were now gon to be made free in glory?
A67778	Or wil hee provide for his Men and Maids, and let his own children starve?
A67778	Or, who would nor cast his burthen upon him, that doth desire to give ease?
A67778	Scriptures spoken by Christ, and his Apostles?
A67778	Shall wee slight all his blessings, because in one thing hee crosseth us, whereas his least mercy is beyond our best merit?
A67778	Suppose thy sufferings bee great, what then?
A67778	That thou hast great cause to rejoice and be glad that thou art counted worthi to suffer shame for Christs name?
A67778	The Lord hath forsaken us; thou hast cast off, and abhorred us: why hast thou forsaken mee& c.?
A67778	The Portugals w ● … ll rejoyce in soul weather why?
A67778	The lame, their limbes?
A67778	The meditation whereof may bee of some use to thee: Thales beeing asked how adversity might best bee born?
A67778	Therefore Bazil, when hee was offered money and preferments to tempt him, answered: Can you give me money that can last for ever?
A67778	Thou maist think so, but God will not do so; but in the mean time, how can this bee well taken?
A67778	Thou wouldest go the naturall Way to work, What shall I do to inherit eternall life?
A67778	Thy Praier is heard: When did he make this Praier?
A67778	To instance in some examples; Satan did nought touching Job, but what the Lord upon his request gave him leave to do; what then?
A67778	True, they appear not ordinarily, what then?
A67778	Was Lazarus for a time extream miserable?
A67778	Were none of his children ever exempted from the like?
A67778	What Fortifications or Bulwarks so strong and safe agaiest the affronts of Satan, and the World?
A67778	What demonstrations can be given more sollid?
A67778	What end is that?
A67778	What if the Lord for a time forbear coming, as Samuel did to Saul; that hee may try what is in thee?
A67778	What saith David?
A67778	What saith God to his people in their misery?
A67778	What shall I say?
A67778	What then?
A67778	What then?
A67778	What then?
A67778	What''s the reason?
A67778	When did God answer the hopes of Sarah, Rebeccah, Rachel, the wife of Manoah, and Elisabeth, touching their long and much desired issues?
A67778	When did Jacob see a Vision of Angels?
A67778	When did Moses find succour, but when his Mother could no longer hide him, and hee was put into the River among the Bull- rushes?
A67778	When did our Saviour heal the woman of her bloody issue?
A67778	When did we talk without vanity?
A67778	When had the Children of Israel the greatest victories, but when they feared most to bee overcome?
A67778	When was Hagar comforted of the Angell, but when her child was neer fanished, and shee had east it under a Tree for dead?
A67778	When was the Sareptan relieved?
A67778	Wherefore hast thou but a touch of sorrow for sin, a spark of hope, a grain of faith in thy heart?
A67778	Wherefore, as Jehoram said to Jebu, when hee marched furiously; Comest thou peaceably?
A67778	Who but Andronic ● … s, Emperour of the East for many years?
A67778	Who ever asked any thing of him which was profitable for him to receive, and did not obtain his suit?
A67778	Who is hee that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lordcommandeth it not?
A67778	Who is so melancholly, as the rich worldling?
A67778	Whom are you angry withal?
A67778	Whom hast thou blasphemed?
A67778	Why doth a Physician give more Wormwood, or Hellebore to this sick party, then to that?
A67778	Why should we not hate the Way to Hell, as much as Hell it self?
A67778	Why were they so long kept from it?
A67778	Will any make choyce of a weak Champion?
A67778	Will you take Saint Panls word for it, or rather Gods own word, who is Truth it self, and can not lie?
A67778	Worse than Josephs?
A67778	Yea, even when they were wandering in a forlorn wilderness, how did God as it were attend upon them in their distress, to supply their wants?
A67778	Yea, shall our glory be increased, as our sufferings have been more?
A67778	Yea, the onely Son of God came to this, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken mee?
A67778	Yet consider, did God forsake either of them?
A67778	and all Gods former favours?
A67778	and dost thou say, nay, but hee will not extend his mercy unto mee, hee will have mee to perish, because I am a grievous sinner?
A67778	and glory that may eternally flourish?
A67778	and shall bastards escape?
A67778	and what thou wilt do, or suffer for him, that hath done and suffered so much for thee?
A67778	and who sings so merry a note, as hee that can not change a groat?
A67778	and why the prayers of the faithfull are so powerfull?
A67778	and yet they were delivered; Or is thy case worse than that of Jonas in the Sea, yea, in the Whales belly?
A67778	and   why should we not make every cogitation, speech, and action of ours, as so many steps to Heaven?
A67778	are they not besides your will?
A67778	are they not contrary to the current of your desires, and the main bent of your resolutions, and indeavours?
A67778	are thy sins more and greater?
A67778	as what did our Saviour answer, when the people asked him, What shall wee do that wee might work the works of God?
A67778	as why did God set Noah about building the Ark an hundred and twenty years, when a small time might have finished it?
A67778	but do they also bring us to repentance, and amendment of l ● … fe?
A67778	doth hee deal thus with his Sons; what will hee do with his Slaves?
A67778	doth hee invite every one?
A67778	doth hee say I would have all men saved, and none to perish?
A67778	hee performed it for us: were wee for disobedience subject to the sentence of condemnation, the curse of the Law, and death of body and soul?
A67778	hee was condemned for us, and bore the curse of the law; hee died in our stead an ignominious death; did wee deserve the anger of God?
A67778	if hee do not answer us in every thing; shall wee take pleasure in nothing?
A67778	or doth Satan onely tell thee so?
A67778	or how great soever they bee?
A67778	or how long soever they continue?
A67778	shall to- days Ague, make us forget yesterdays health?
A67778	than Mary Magdulen, a common strumpet; possest of many Devills?
A67778	than Paul, a bloody pers ● … cutor of Christ and his Church?
A67778	than the Theef upon the Cross, who had spent his whole life to the last hour in abominable wickedness?
A67778	the blind their sight?
A67778	this heavie yoake of bondage?
A67778	this tedious affliction?
A67778	we hear without wearysomness?
A67778	when all the evill in a City, coms from the providence of a good God, which can neither bee impotent, nor unme cifull?
A67778	when did in himself an indisposition of mind to all good, and an inclination to all evill?
A67778	when did we give without hypocrisie?
A67778	when did we reprove without anger, or envy?
A67778	when did wee bargain without deceit?
A67778	when did wee pray without tediousness?
A67778	when hee was thrown into a Pit, and left hopeless; or when sold to the Ishmaelitish Merchants, and then cast into prison?
A67778	why doth he permit so many, and such notorious crimes?
A67778	why doth he punish the innocent, and acquit the peccant?
A67778	why is he so severe towards his own; so gentle to others?
A67778	why then should you give your self over, where your Physitian doth not?
A67778	yea, how can wee look for other at thine hands, then great and grievous, yea, then double damnation?
A67760	& c. What shall become of him that takes away other mens, that robs the poore, turns them out of their own house, and casts them into prison?
A67760	18. but how do we so, if we take not care for them, as we do for our selves?
A67760	A friend of his noting it, askt him what might be the reason?
A67760	Again, Is there any place so safe as Heaven?
A67760	Again, It''s impossible that he who hath love should be ungratefull?
A67760	Again, Was not the Gospel written a ● wel to the married, as unmarried?
A67760	Am I the first that have sinned?
A67760	And Lot& Corunelius?
A67760	And O man, what is God that thou art so unmindfull of him?
A67760	And again, How sweet are thy words unto my mouth?
A67760	And again, being diseased in his feet, it is said, That he sought not to the Lord, but to the Physicians; and what follows?
A67760	And can we thinke to keep our riches, by disobeying his commandment?
A67760	And certainly if we can not trust him for our bodies; how do we, or how can we trust him with our souls?
A67760	And do they assure us of our future reward; and fruition of God''s presence hereafter?
A67760	And how wilt thou fare?
A67760	And how would God bless us in our souls, bodies, names, estates and posterities?
A67760	And indeed what can be a more forcible reason to make our hearts relent, though they be never so stony?
A67760	And is there any pain, like the separation from Christ, into everlasting and ever- flaming fire?
A67760	And is there such a necessity of shewing mercy to the poor members of Jesus Christ?
A67760	And shall we be such Atheists, as to trust the ground, and not God?
A67760	And that it is not so much given, as laid up?
A67760	And then conclude with, What shall I render unto thee, O Lord, for all these thy benefits?
A67760	And thou his Servant by all manner of obligations?
A67760	And were it not better then, to prevent a mischief before, then repent you did not when''t is too late?
A67760	And what availeth the one without the other?
A67760	And what saith holy David; a man of a most brave and divine spirit?
A67760	And who knows whether God hath nor put me upon this work, and will accordingly blesse the meanes that shall be used?
A67760	And who then that believes this, would not think himself happy in such an exchange?
A67760	Are they evident signs of saving Graces?
A67760	Are we no less beholding to the poor, then they are to us?
A67760	As Rachab, Gaius, Job, The Centurian, Boas, Cornelius, and Mery: as how did our Saviour value and honour Maries bounty?
A67760	As how do their hearts droop with their mammon?
A67760	As how is Abraham commended for his hospitality, and almes- deeds?
A67760	As how will it one day grieve these griping Ingrossers, and Oppressors?
A67760	As maist not thou thy self be in affliction or want?
A67760	As thus: Would you quiet your clamorous conscience, that will not be friends with you, unlesse you be friends with God?
A67760	As what Husbandman does not reckon more of his seed in the ground, then of that in his Barn or Garner?
A67760	As what canst thou say against it?
A67760	As what gained Balaam, or Judas, or Ahab, or Achan, or Ananias and ● aphira?
A67760	As what saith holy David?
A67760	As what saith the Holy Ghost?
A67760	As what says Saint Paul?
A67760	As you see the wicked, because they apply their hearts to wickednesse, how fast they proceed?
A67760	Behold thou hast been carefull for us( sayes Elisha to the Shun ● mite,) with all this care: what is to be done for thee?
A67760	Besides, how can men partake of that fountain of joy, and rejoyce not?
A67760	But Fourthly; Does any one desire or glory in Liberty?
A67760	But alas, how many are there that set the cart before the horse, and begin to change their lives, before their hearts?
A67760	But aske his conscience the next question; What good hast thou done for his sake?
A67760	But how can I speak, whenas my Tongue is tyed?
A67760	But if giving might not properly be called gaining, why is it compated to sowing?
A67760	But shall I shew you in some Particulars, how gainfull and profitable it is?
A67760	But thou wilt say, What can we do for God; or for Christ?
A67760	But what a fearful reckoning have these men to make at the day of Judgement, when they give in their accounts unto God?
A67760	But what a strange folly is this?
A67760	But what do I speak of his being liberall or the approach of Death?
A67760	But who will sow those barren Sands, where they are not only without all hope of a good Harvest, but are sure to loose their Seed and Labour?
A67760	But wilt thou prove thy self wise?
A67760	But you will aske me, from what must we save?
A67760	Can the Sun receive light from a candle?
A67760	Christians should be like Christ: but how unlike to him are these men?
A67760	Do we enjoy all things through Gods blessing?
A67760	Do''st thou not know, that with what measure thou metest to others here, God will measure to thee again hereafter?
A67760	Dost thou then love thy mony?
A67760	Even every sin; for what sin should be so dear to us, as Gods only Son was to him?
A67760	First he learnt godlinesse, then godlinesse taught him contentation; and is there any satisfaction like content?
A67760	First, Does any man desire or glory in Knowledge?
A67760	For did God and Christ, do all this for us?
A67760	For if for one sin at the first, God plagued a world of men; how will he plague one man for a world of sin?
A67760	For in reason hath he contrived so many waies to save us; and should not we take all occasions to glorifie him?
A67760	For what shall it profit a man?
A67760	Fourthly, Hath Christ done all this for us, his servants, so much, and so many waies obliged unto him?
A67760	God hath said it, and they shall finde it: And what is it to flourish for a time, and perish for ever?
A67760	Hast thou not all outward comforts, presenting themselves and their service to thee in great aboundance?
A67760	Hath God given thee all things, and dost thou then thinke it a great matter to give him back something?
A67760	Hath he done so much for us, and shall we deny him any thing that he requireth of us, though it were our lives, yea our souls; much more our lusts?
A67760	Hath he promised to bless the merciful man in his temporal, civil, spiritual, and eternal estate?
A67760	He is gracious and full of compassion, he sheweth favour and lendeth, he hath given to the poore,& c. And what shall be his reward?
A67760	How hast thou pierced my breast with thy poysoned Dart?
A67760	How long shall thy wicked thoughts remain with thee?
A67760	How many ruffle it in silke, 〈 ◊ 〉 that are scarce able to pay for wool?
A67760	How should it not whet them on, and make them put the same in practise?
A67760	I am becom partaker with the Rich Man in his Condemnation, and scorching flames in the horrible pit?
A67760	I have been young, and now am old, y ● have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread: and why so?
A67760	I will turn my talk to God: Why hast thou lift me up, and cast me down?
A67760	I would fain know, whether this be not thy case, that art an unmercifull rich man?
A67760	If he still enjoyes his wealth, together with his life for many yeares, yet what will it profit him when sicknesse comes?
A67760	If we be righteous, our righteousnesse may profit the sonnes of men; but what can we give unto him?
A67760	If you ask David Who are blessed?
A67760	If you ask Esay, Who are blessed?
A67760	If you ask Solomon, Who are blessed?
A67760	If you ask St. James, Who are blessed?
A67760	If you ask an Angel, who are blessed?
A67760	If you ask him again, Who are blessed?
A67760	Is he thy Lord by a manifold Right?
A67760	Is it the most certain and infallible way never to want?
A67760	Is not this the best Chimistry to turn Earth into Heaven?
A67760	Is our Jonathan gone?
A67760	Is sparing in this case, the worst thrift?
A67760	Is there no such way to grow rich, as by being bountiful to the poor?
A67760	Lastly, For conclusion of this point, Wouldst thou be a contented and Happy man?
A67760	Now if grace and Gods favour, brings such peace and joy: what fools are sinners?
A67760	Now what better inheritance can we leave to our Children, then the blessing of God?
A67760	Now what heart would not bleed to see men, yea multitudes run headlong into these tortures, that are thus intolerable?
A67760	Now, do we love Christ?
A67760	O Satan, how hast thou wounded me?
A67760	O how many great streams of Lamentation and tears will wash away and purge mine humble heart?
A67760	O thou Devil, what hast thou done unto me?
A67760	Objection: But will some say, How shall we obtain this happy condition?
A67760	Of Lot''s sons in Law, that counted their Fathers fore- warnings a meer mockage?
A67760	Of the rich Glutton, that made no more reckoning of Moses and the Prophets?
A67760	Or Fifthly, Is it safety from fear and danger, that a man wishes for or desires?
A67760	Or am I the first that fell?
A67760	Or can you put it into a better and safer hand, then into the hands of God himself?
A67760	Or do we desire to do something again for Christ, who hath done and suffered so much for us?
A67760	Or if not for their soules, yet for thine owne: For why shouldest thou love thy children better then thine owne person?
A67760	Or like Cardan Doctor of Physick in Rome, who when Out- landish Schollars came to him, would answer them, What have I to do with Forraigners?
A67760	Or that God will regard and feed thy Children, who hast neglected his, and suffered them to pine and perish for want of Relief?
A67760	Or, commend thy pity?
A67760	Or, extol thy praise?
A67760	Salvation by Christ?
A67760	Secondly, Does any man desire, or glory in Honour and Nobility?
A67760	Seventhly, Wouldest thou with all these, have all peace and joy?
A67760	Shal we have the benefit of their prayers, and their loins to bless us?
A67760	Shall God have glory by it?
A67760	Shall the merciful be rewarded with illumination and conversion?
A67760	Shall they have cause to pray for, and praise God for us?
A67760	Shall they thereby be the better able to serve God in their several stations?
A67760	Sixthly art thou but a Steward put in trust?
A67760	Sixthly, how much might be spared of what men vainely spend in keeping of Horses, Hawkes, and Dogs?
A67760	THankfulness for one benefit, inviteth another: but how worthy is he to perish in the next danger, that is not thankful for escaping the former?
A67760	Tamberlain having overcome Bajazet, asked him whether he had ever given God thanks for making him so great an Emperor?
A67760	That prefer a little base pelf; before God, and their own salvation?
A67760	That there is no being saved without it, hath God therefore given us all, that we may impart some part thereof to others that want?
A67760	Thinkest thou that my ruine will avail thee any thing at all?
A67760	Thinkest thou to procure unto thy self ease and rest, whiles that I am grievously tormented?
A67760	Thirdly, Didst thou desire Children of God?
A67760	Thirdly, Does any man glory in riches?
A67760	To Parents, as wel as to those who have no Children?
A67760	To what purpose is it, to crop the top of the weeds, or lop off the boughes of the tree, when the root and stalk remain in the earth?
A67760	Was Christ crucified for our sins?
A67760	Was not this fulfilled in H ● man?
A67760	What comfort wil it be unto thee, if for getting some trifles for thy posterity on Earth, thou hast lost Heaven?
A67760	What for Christ?
A67760	What for the members of Christ?
A67760	What have you done for God?
A67760	What is it to flourish for a time, and perish for ever?
A67760	What mad men are Misers?
A67760	What mischief hast thou wrought unto me?
A67760	What profit does the Sunne receive, by our looking upon it?
A67760	What saies Christ?
A67760	What saies holy David?
A67760	What shall I say?
A67760	What shall become of extortion, and Rapine?
A67760	What shall become of him, that takes away other mens?
A67760	What, not love God?
A67760	When God was displeased, what was the effect?
A67760	Where didst thou sleep?
A67760	Where is that good Shepherd of Souls?
A67760	Whereas the Poore shall onely have some outward relief and comfott thereby?
A67760	Wherefore in the first place, Hath God so strictly commanded it?
A67760	Whether he will have respect unto my humility, and incline his tender compassion towards me?
A67760	Whether he will pity my fall?
A67760	Whether, he will be moved with my desolation?
A67760	Who can say( saies Menander) I shall never do, nor suffer this or that?
A67760	Who knoweth whether the Lord wil have mercy upon me?
A67760	Who would deny to cloath him being naked?
A67760	Who would not give Christ lodging?
A67760	Why hast thou forsaken me, and banished me from among the Saints, and astonied me to preach thy Laws?
A67760	Why say we then we give to the poor?
A67760	Why then hast thou not the like faith?
A67760	Why then shouldest not thou know it reason, to do to others, as thou wouldest have them do to thee?
A67760	Wil these Works of Mercy bring such joy and peace, confirm our hope, and sweeten all our afflictions?
A67760	Wil what we have this way distributed, stand us in more stead at the hour of Death, and Day of Judgement, then all the Wealth in the World?
A67760	Wil with- holding from the poor, bring a man to poverty?
A67760	Will this Bill pass current, when God comes to cast it up?
A67760	Wo is me, that sometime was a Pearle glistering in the golden garland of Glory, but now thrown into the dust, and trodden in the mire of contempt?
A67760	Would we( were it our case) think the contrary very unequal?
A67760	Wouldest thou become thankefull?
A67760	Wouldst thou have saith?
A67760	Wouldst thou have the love of God, and the asistance of his Spirit, ask it of him by Prayer?
A67760	Wouldst thou pray that thou maist be heard?
A67760	Yea how little, how nothing, are the poore and Temporary Injoyments of this life, to those we shall injoy in the next?
A67760	Yea how would they praise God, and pray for their bountiful Benefactors?
A67760	Yea in truth, what madnesse is it to deny, being requested, to give at his appointment some small portion of our goods?
A67760	Yea where is the man that wil not boast of his love to Christ?
A67760	Yea ▪ why shouldst thou preferre their wealth before thine own soule?
A67760	Yea, let so many of us, as have either heart or brain, in the next place say, O Lord, What is man that thou art so mindfull of him?
A67760	Yea, some can carry whole Mannors upon their backs, heads, feet, and fingers, what hospitality then can be expected from such?
A67760	Yea, what would they not have given for a little Oyle, and for entrance with the wise, into the Wedding?
A67760	Yea, what would you not give, if you then had it?
A67760	Yea, why shouldst thou prefer their Wealth before thine own soul?
A67760	a great Vsurer?
A67760	and Captaines over hundreds?
A67760	and Darcas?
A67760	and art thou to give an account unto God, how thou hast husbanded thy Master''s Goods; and wil this be the bill of particulars thou hast to give up?
A67760	and everlasting life?
A67760	and how it brings the blessing of God upon all, or rather all Gods blessings upon him that is godly?
A67760	and in providing for them, neglect thy selfe?
A67760	and is it not fulfilled daily in our experience?
A67760	and much stronger in spiritual, then thou hast in respect of natural things?
A67760	and shall we do nothing for him again?
A67760	and should we by our sins crucifie him again?
A67760	and their flourishing Estate in the World, which is but momentary and mutable, before the fruition of those joys which are infinite and everlasting?
A67760	and their flourishing estate in the world, which is but momentany and mutable, before the fruition of those joyes which are infinite and everlasting?
A67760	and who wil give streams of tears unto my Eyes, that I may bewail my self in this my sorrowful plight?
A67760	and wouldest not thou in thy need, be relieved?
A67760	and wouldst thou have it increased?
A67760	but the superfluous and excessive love of money?
A67760	have so good cheer and banqueting, hear so great melody, joy and triumph?
A67760	how didst thou not bethink thy self?
A67760	how didst thou not remember?
A67760	how didst thou not understand?
A67760	how easily, and how quickly they become perfect Swearers, perfect Drunkards, cunning Deceivers,& c.?
A67760	how wilt thou answer this before the Great, just and Terrible Judge of all the World?
A67760	is not this a good bargaine to part with vaine and uncertain things, to partake of real and durable riches?
A67760	my Sons be alive, yet am I barren, Alas O Spirit which camest heretofore down upon me, why hast thou forsaken me?
A67760	or ascribe them to thy self, or other helps?
A67760	or call them into question?
A67760	or did he give thee Children, that thou mightest make them a Plea and Priviledge to neglect his Commandments, and thy duty and love to Christ?
A67760	or how should the stream flow and the fountain and well head be dried up?
A67760	or to remember, that thy children ruffle it out in worldly wealth ▪ and superfluous abundance?
A67760	or what receiveth he at our hands?
A67760	or would we indeed expresse our thankfulnesse to him, for what we have received from him?
A67760	that hast beaten the poor to pieces, and ground their faces?
A67760	though by a most unworthy and insufficient Instrument?
A67760	though he should win the whole world, if he gain Hell with it, and loose both Heaven and his own soul?
A67760	what is there to be done for thee?
A67760	when by seeking unlawfull gain, they lost both what they got, and themselves too?
A67760	when they shall receive a multiplicity of torments, according to the multiplicity of their cruel and unconscionable deeds?
A67760	where no thief comes, where no Plunderer comes, where no rust comes: Is there any place like that?
A67760	who can sufficiently expresse thy love?
A67760	who liveth by Faith, rather then by Sence: For by how many secret passages can God conveigh unto thee the reward of thy Alms- deeds?
A67760	will he make you all Captaines over thousands?
A67760	wilt thou do thy self good indeed?
A67760	would not turn all his scraping into giving?
A67760	wouldest thou be spoken for to the King, or to the Captain of the Host?
A67760	yea what can we think too much, what not too little to give to attain eternity?
A67746	& c. Yea, the onely Sonne of God came to this; my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
A67746	1. and that God esteemes of faith above all other graces, deeds, or acts of thine?
A67746	14. they saw the Pillar remove behind them, and the Sea remove before them, they looking for nothing but death?
A67746	19. that he was able to say, Though I should walke through the valley of the shaddo ● of death I will feare no evill: Why?
A67746	2. and see what cause he had so to say; what what were these Arrow ● s?
A67746	21. and as heartily, and unfaynedly desire, that thou maist never commit it, as that God should never impute it?
A67746	25. Who will not be willing to suffer with Christ, that he may also raigne with him?
A67746	26. and the Apostles esteemed it a grace, to be disgraced for him: and shall we grumble, or thinke much at it?
A67746	31. to 36. and yet he againe reigned in Babell: Worse than Josephs?
A67746	310 Assurance of the pardon of sinne, what a comfort?
A67746	Achan for one sa ● reledge?
A67746	Admit thou art a great sinner, what then?
A67746	Again seaventhly, how excellently was Jobs sincerity made known by Sathans malice, when he brought sorth those Angelicall words; What?
A67746	Againe secondly, if wee make this use of our sufferings, what more pretious than the reproaches of an enemy?
A67746	Againe, shall it ever enter into our hearts to thinke, that God gives us rules to keepe, and yet breake them himselfe?
A67746	Alas, what can they do?
A67746	Ana ● ● as for one lye?
A67746	And David speaking of his sonne Absaloms treason, I was dumbe and said nothing; why?
A67746	And dost thou make thy slight sufferings an argument of his displeasure?
A67746	And herein wee fare no worse than Christ; Did not his spirit passe from the Crosse into Paradise?
A67746	And how profitable is that affliction, which carryeth me to Heaven?
A67746	And how should they other then miscarry, who have a Pirate( the Flesh) for their guide?
A67746	And in common reason, can a Clock goe without a weight to move it, or a Keeper to set it?
A67746	And in reason, did he come to call sinners to repentance, and shall he not shew merey to the penitent?
A67746	And indeed, how many have wee knowne the better for th ● ir sinne?
A67746	And indeed, what shouldst thou doe in case thou seest that the world runs not on thy side, but give over the world, and be on Gods side?
A67746	And is not Christ to our soules the onely Sun of righteousness, and fountaine of all comfort?
A67746	And lastly, shall our momentany sufferings be rewarded with overlasting glory?
A67746	And makes not this infinitly for the glory of God?
A67746	And may not this comfort thee?
A67746	And see how hee followed his Masters example; for which amongst us so loves his Benefactors, as Saint Paul loved his Malefactors?
A67746	And what else did Judas, touching Mary, when hee depraved her in our Saviours presence, for powring that pretious oyntment on his feet?
A67746	And what more glorious than with Noahs Olive- tree, to keep our Branches green under water?
A67746	And what saith Naaman upon the cleansing of his Leprosie?
A67746	And what saith that Tyrian Queene?
A67746	And what though thou canst not poure out thy soule in a 〈 … 〉 ud of words?
A67746	And what will become of him, if he repent not; who can afford no time to argue, but to execute?
A67746	And wherein does thy case differ?
A67746	And whether had you rather rejoyce for one fit, or alwayes?
A67746	And whom did Christ honour with his first appearance, but Mary Magdalen?
A67746	And why all this, but that in his owne might no man might be strong?
A67746	And why doth the goodnesse of our God pick out the most needfull times for our reliefe and comfort?
A67746	And why is it not so with thee?
A67746	And yet thou exceptest thy selfe, he excludes none, and dost thou exclude one, and that one thy selfe?
A67746	Are these stripes the chiefest tokens and pledges of Gods love and adoption?
A67746	Are thy sinnes great?
A67746	Are we bound to performe perfect obedience to the Law?
A67746	As how doth Davids patience draw on the insolence of Shimei?
A67746	As how few of these Salamanders who are never well, but when they are in the fire of contention, are long lived?
A67746	As touching the first, why descended he to take our flesh?
A67746	As what is a mountaine of Earth but an accumulation of many little dusts?
A67746	Beleevest thou the former Scriptures spoken by Christ, and his Apostles?
A67746	Besides, how were the Angels in heaven punished for one fault?
A67746	Besides, without some kinde of suffering, how shall your sincerity be approved?
A67746	But all the evill thou doest to the godly, is with thy tongue?
A67746	But bethinke thy selfe, is it worse with thee than it was with those b ● fore mentioned?
A67746	But how can I lay downe my life for Christ?
A67746	But how in this case?
A67746	But is it so?
A67746	But may some say, can any good come out of such a Nazarite?
A67746	But tell me, hath not this roaring Lyon prevailed against thy best part?
A67746	But to goe on; wilt thou follow Gods example?
A67746	But what did they answer?
A67746	But what doe I tell them of these transcendent examples?
A67746	But what ever others find, thy sufferings are not thus counterpoysed and sweetned?
A67746	But what hath beene the answer of GOD alwayes to his children in such their extasies, but this?
A67746	But what of all this?
A67746	But what would malice rather have, than the vexation of them whom it perse ● utes?
A67746	But what''s the reason?
A67746	But when will there be an end of this long disease?
A67746	Can not our enemies diminish one haire of our heads, without Gods speciall leave and appointment?
A67746	David, whence came all his troubles by Absalom, Ammon, Adoniah?
A67746	Did God and Belial joyne in fulfilling the same act?
A67746	Did ever any sinner implore the forgivenesse of his sinnes, which did not receive full remission and pardon?
A67746	Did he not without the Sunne at the Creation, cause light to shine forth; and without raine at the same time, make the earth fruitfull?
A67746	Did it ever repent Jacob, when he came to inherit his Fathers blessing, that he had endured a long exile, and tedious bondage?
A67746	Did not hee first descend into Hell, and then had his ascension?
A67746	Did not the sicke ever receive their health?
A67746	Doe thou beare with others, God beares with thee; is there a too much, which thou canst suffer for so patient a Lord?
A67746	Dost thou determine to continue in the practice of any one sinne?
A67746	Dost thou not love rather to be, then seeme, or be thought good; and seeke more the power of godlinesse, then the shew of it?
A67746	Doth Satan merit thanks?
A67746	Doth hee make bloody wayles on the backes of his Children, and shall Bastards escape?
A67746	Doth not God onely gaine glory by our sufferings, but doe they also bring 〈 ◊ 〉 to repentance, and amendment of life?
A67746	Even Hazael before hee met with an opportunity, could say, What?
A67746	For consider, doth the Lord say he will extend his mercy unto all that come unto him?
A67746	For first: Who ever was, that was not slandered?
A67746	For the Law of God, and the Law of Nature forbids it; and doth not the Law of Nations also?
A67746	For what can be spoken more expresse, direct, and significant?
A67746	For, art thou borne of God?
A67746	God used the malice of Pharaoh and Shemei unto good; what then?
A67746	Hast thou but thoughts and desires, and canst thou onely expresse them with sighes, and groanes?
A67746	Hast thou then a desire after this invincible patience?
A67746	Hath he promised that wee shall not be tempted above our strength?
A67746	Hath this Lyon yeelded thee any honey of Instruction, or Reformation?
A67746	Hath thy sinne dyed with thy fame, or with thy health, or with thy peace, or with thy outward estate?
A67746	Have mercy upon me( saith hee) and heark ● n unto my prayer: Why?
A67746	How can we but say, let the world frowne, and all things in it runne crosse to the graine of our mindes?
A67746	How deare a Jewell is health to him that tumbles in distempered bloud?
A67746	How is that?
A67746	How many flying from danger, have met with death?
A67746	How many severall qualities have the Plants that they Brouze upon?
A67746	How oft doth guiltinesse make one avoid, what another would wish in this case?
A67746	How rashly then hast thou judged of thy Makers dealing with thee?
A67746	How small trifles make us weary of our selves?
A67746	How sweet is liberty to one that hath beene long imm 〈 … 〉 ed within a case of wals?
A67746	I meane thy soule free?
A67746	I, but is it wisedome so to doe?
A67746	If every thing were unlike him, how is it possible hee should love us?
A67746	If it bee a ● ked why God reckons so highly of a few sighes and groanes?
A67746	If we be sicke, and the Physitian promises to visit us to morrow with his best reliefe, with what a tedious longing doe we expect his presence?
A67746	If you endure chast 〈 … 〉, God offereth himselfe unto you, as unto sonnes: for 〈 ◊ 〉 so ● ● e is it whom the Father chasteneth not?
A67746	In these cases how full of life, and spirit, and holy impatiency did he shew himselfe to be?
A67746	Indeed, what have we by our second birth, which is not miraculous in comparison of our naturall condition?
A67746	Is God more specially present with us in afflictions?
A67746	Is any one afflicted?
A67746	It may be his naturall, spirituall or politicall parents, in some kinde or other: as who can plead innocency herein?
A67746	It was a common complaint with David, The Lord both forsaken us; those hast cast off, and abhorred us: why hast thou forsaken me?
A67746	Let a man but fast a meale or two, oh how sweete is browne bread, though it would not downe before?
A67746	Let every such Jonas reflect upon himselfe, and say, What evill have I done?
A67746	Mirriam for one slander?
A67746	Moses for one unbeleefe?
A67746	Neither can there be a worse signe, of ensuing evill, then for a man in a carnall presumption to vaunt of his owne abilities?
A67746	Neither say of thy sinne, as once Lot of Zoar; is it not a little one?
A67746	Neither wants he care; he that numbers our very haires, what account doth he make of our soules?
A67746	Never were the Jewes more to be pitied, then when their Prophet delivered these words from the Lord, Why should yee be stricken any more?
A67746	Nor love; for if he hath bought us with his bloud, and given us himselfe, will he deny us any thing that is good for us?
A67746	Now Lord it being thus with us, how can wee expect that th ● n should ● st heare our prayers, and grant our ● ● qu ● sts?
A67746	Now if that bosome wherein we all look to rest, was assaulted with so many sore tryals, and so divers difficulties, is it likely we should escape?
A67746	Now instead of being overcome, dost thou overcome?
A67746	Now what is it that wee suffer, being compared with their sufferings?
A67746	Now who would not be willing to bleed, when by that meanes an inveterate sicknesse may be prevented?
A67746	Now, if thy very enemies thus honour thee, how should thy friends( bought with thy precious blood) glorifie thee?
A67746	Now, what Sonne of Israel can hope for any good dayes, when hee heares his Fathers were so evill?
A67746	Now, when so much was uttered, even by a non- such for his patience; what may we thinke hee did feele, and indure?
A67746	Now, whethers counsell wilt thou follow?
A67746	O how ● eet a thing is peace to them that have beene long troubled with warres and tedious contentions?
A67746	O what a glorious renowne did the Traytors reproach occasion her?
A67746	Oh, it is a good change, to have the fire of affliction for the fire of H ● ll: Who would not rather sinart for a while, than for ever?
A67746	Or Joseph, when he was once made Ruler in Aegypt, that he had formerly beene sold thither, and there imprisoned?
A67746	Or as Jewell did his friends in banishment; saying, This world will not last ever?
A67746	Or which of Gods servants did ever repent that they had passed the apprentiship of their service here, and were now gone to be made free in glory?
A67746	Or will he provide for his Men and Maides, and let his owne Children strave?
A67746	Or with Aarons Rod, to bring forth ripe Almonds, when in appearance wee are clung and dry?
A67746	Or, who would not e ● st his burthen upon him, that doth desire to give ease?
A67746	Our holy longings are increased with delayes; it whets our appetite to bee held fasting, and whom will not Need make both humble and eloquent?
A67746	Shall we receive good at the hands of God, and not evill?
A67746	Shall wee slight all his blessings, because in one thing hee crosseth us, whereas his least mercy is beyond our best ▪ merit?
A67746	Slay them?
A67746	Suppose thy suff ● rings be great, what then?
A67746	That thou hast great cause to rejoyce and be glad, that thou art counted worthy to suffer shame for Christs Name?
A67746	The Portingals will rejoyce in foule weather; why?
A67746	Thou mayst thinke so, but God will not doe so; but in the meane time, how can this be well taken?
A67746	Thou wouldest goe the naturall way to worke, What shall I doe to inherit etonall life?
A67746	Thy prayer is heard: When did he make this Prayer?
A67746	To instance in some examples; Sathan did nought touching Job, but what the Lord upon his request gave him leave to doe; what then?
A67746	True, the fainting heart that hath waited some time, may with the Psalmist mutter out some such speech as this, Hath God forgotten to bee gracious?
A67746	Was Lazarus for a time extreame miserable?
A67746	We are bound to praise thee above any Nation whatsoever: for what Nation under Heaven en ● oyes so much light, or so many blessings as we?
A67746	Wee all call our selves Christians: why?
A67746	Well then, art thou vexed, persecuted, and afflicted by some cruell and malitious Saul?
A67746	Were none of his children ever exempted from the like?
A67746	What Fortisications or Bulwar ● es so strong and safe against the affronts of Satan, and the World?
A67746	What a load of injuries can some Christians digest, that have beene frequent in sufferings, and long exercised in the Schoole of Affliction?
A67746	What can wee doe without thee?
A67746	What demonstrations can be given more sollid?
A67746	What did he lose by it, or had he cause to repent himselfe?
A67746	What evill hast thou done said the Marriners to the distressed Prophet, that this evill is come upon us?
A67746	What if the Lord for a time forbeare comming, as Samuel did to Saul; that hee may try what is in thee?
A67746	What is this but in effect, and at a distance to contradict the Lord, and give the lye to truth it selfe?
A67746	What need had David to loade himselfe with an unnessary weapon?
A67746	What need we returne rayling for rayling?
A67746	What saith David?
A67746	What saith Job?
A67746	What saith one advisedly?
A67746	What saith the Apostle?
A67746	What shall I say?
A67746	What then?
A67746	What then?
A67746	What then?
A67746	What will not men undergoe, so their pay may be answerable?
A67746	What, saith Saint Hierom, in the like case?
A67746	When Aristippus was asked by one in dirision, where the great high friendship was become, that formerly had bin between him and Estines?
A67746	When did God answer the hopes of Sarah, Rebeckah, Rachel, the wife of Manoah, and Elizabeth, touching their long and much desired issues?
A67746	When did Moses finde succour, but when his Mother could no longer hide him: and he was put into the River among the Bullrushes?
A67746	When did we talke without vanity?
A67746	When had the Children of Israel the greatest victories, but when they feared most to bee overcome?
A67746	When was Hagar comforted of the Aagell, but when her childe was neere famished, and she had cast it under a Tree for dead?
A67746	Wherefore, as Jehoram said to Jehu, when he marched furiously; Commest thou peaceably?
A67746	Which all mingled together, what a well tempered S ● llad do they make?
A67746	Who but Andronicus, Emperour of the East for many yeares?
A67746	Who could feele the odoriferous smell of these Aromaticall spices, if they were not pownded and bruised in the Morter of affliction?
A67746	Who could know the Faith, Patience, and Valour, of Gods souldiers, if they alwayes lay in Garrison, and never came to the skirmish?
A67746	Who could know whether we be Vessels of gold, or drosse, unlesse we were brought to the Touch- stone of temptation?
A67746	Who ever asked any thing of him, which was profitable for him to receive, and did not obtaine his sute?
A67746	Who is he that saith, and it commeth to passe, when the Lord commandeth it not?
A67746	Who is so melancholy as the rich worldling?
A67746	Who will not suffer a few stripes from a Father, by whom he receiveth so much good, even all that he hath?
A67746	Who would not be a Philpot for a moneth, or a Lazarus for a day, or a Stephen for an houre, that he might be in Abrahams bosome for ever?
A67746	Why doth the Hare use so many doublings?
A67746	Why groanest thou under thy burden, and cryest out of unremedied paine?
A67746	Why is the Lapwing made an Hieroglyphicke of infelicity?
A67746	Why should we not hate the way to Hell, as much as Hell it selfe?
A67746	Why then complainest thou, I am afflicted on every side?
A67746	Why then should you give your selfe over, where your Physitian doth not?
A67746	Why were they so long kept from it?
A67746	Why?
A67746	Will any m ● ● ● choyce of a weak Champion?
A67746	Will you take Saint Pauls word for it, or rather GODS owne word, who is truth it selfe, and can not lye?
A67746	Wilt thou( saith one) looke to raigne, and not expect to suffe ●?
A67746	Without thee, what can we suffer?
A67746	Worse than Job, when he sate scraping his soares on the dunghill, had all his houses burn ●, all his cattell stolne, and his children sl ● ine?
A67746	Wouldst thou have faith?
A67746	Wouldst thou have the love of God?
A67746	Yea, how many will confesse, that one affliction hath done more good upon them, than many Sermons?
A67746	Yea, how should we not with a great deale of comfort and security, passe through a Sea of troubles, that wee may come to that haven of eternall rest?
A67746	Yea, shall our glory bee increased, as our sufferings have beene m ● re?
A67746	Yea, what hath the more temperate worldling to say for himselfe, who hath some small peece of reason for his guide?
A67746	Yea, what said blessed Bradford?
A67746	You''l confesse then t is Princely to disdaine a wrong; and is that all?
A67746	and dost thou say, nay but he will not extend his mercy unto me, he will have mee to perish, because I am a grievous sinner?
A67746	and he had never been a Courtier, if he had not first beene a prisoner?
A67746	and is it grievous to thee for the present?
A67746	and the Angell, but Peter?
A67746	and to be baptized with the baptisme that I shall be baptized with?
A67746	and what thou wilt doe, or suffer for him, that hath do ● e and suffered so much for thee?
A67746	and who sings so merry a note, as he that can not change a groat?
A67746	and why should we not make every cogitation, spéech, and action of ours, as so many steps to Heaven?
A67746	and why the prayers of the faithfull are so powerfull?
A67746	and yet they were delivered: Or is thy case worse than that of Jonas in the Sea, yea in the Whales belly?
A67746	as what did our Saviour answer, when the people asked him, What sh ● ll we doe that we might worke the workes of God?
A67746	as why did God se ● Noah about building the Arke, an hundred and twenty yeares, when a small time might have finished it?
A67746	but who can measure thy goodnesse, who givest 〈 ◊ 〉, and forgiv ● st all?
A67746	did he not thrust his owne feet into the stocks by that threefold lye of his, uttered in a breath to get the blessing?
A67746	doth he deale thus with his Sonnes, what will he doe with his Slaves?
A67746	doth he invite every one?
A67746	doth he say I would have all men saved, and none to perish?
A67746	hast thou kept thy head whole?
A67746	hast thou vanquished the World that vanquisheth all the wicked?
A67746	he sends his Serjeant to arrest thee for thy debt; commands thee and all thou h ● ft to be sold, but why?
A67746	hee would have all men saved, and thou commest in with thy exceptive, all but mee; why thee?
A67746	how many furious men, by a rash bloudshed?
A67746	if he doe not answer us in everything, shall we take pleasure in nothing?
A67746	if when a man reviles thee thou art impatient, how wouldest thou afford thy ashes to Christ, and write patience with thine owne blood?
A67746	is thy servant a dogge?
A67746	or doth Satan only tell thee so?
A67746	or what good have I omitted or intermitted?
A67746	or what is a flood, but a concurrence of many little drops?
A67746	or with Moses Bush, not to consume though on a light fire?
A67746	shall to dayes Ague, make us forget yesterdayes health, and all Gods former favours?
A67746	shall we receive good at the hand of God, and not receive evill?
A67746	that they have learned more good in one dayes or weekes misery, than many yeares prosperity could teach them?
A67746	the blinde their sight?
A67746	the lame their limbes?
A67746	then Mary Magdalen, a common strumpet; possest of many Devils?
A67746	then Paul, a bloudy persecutor of Christ and his Church?
A67746	then the Theefe upon the Crosse, who had spent his whole life to the last houre, in ab 〈 … 〉 inable wickednesse?
A67746	this heavy yoake of bondage?
A67746	this tedious affliction?
A67746	was it not his fondnesse and indulgence?
A67746	was it not his owne undutifulnesse?
A67746	what cunning conveyances?
A67746	what jugling, shuffling, and packing will he use, to make any sinne feazable?
A67746	what quaint querks?
A67746	what sinne have I committed or admitted?
A67746	what subtill shifts?
A67746	when Balack told him, am not I able indeed to promote thee to honour?
A67746	when I can not for his sake, quietly disgest a few reproachfull speeches?
A67746	when did we bargaine without deceit?
A67746	when did we give without hypocrisie?
A67746	when did we pray without ● ● diousnesse?
A67746	when did we reprove without anger, or envy?
A67746	when did wee heare without wearisomnesse?
A67746	when he was throwne into a Pit ●, and left hopelesse; or when sold to the Ishm ● elitish Merchants, and then cast into prison?
A67746	who findes not in himselfe an indisposition of minde to all good, and an inclination to all evill?
A67746	why doth he permit so m ● ny, and such notorious crimes?
A67746	why doth he punish the innocent, and acquit the peccant?
A67746	would any man put his life to a venter, if he knew that when hee dyed he should presently drop into hell?
A67746	yea, how can wee looke for other at thin ● hands, then great and g ● i ● vous, yea, then double damnation?
A15845	& c. Doth not our Saviour himself say, that the gate of heaven is so strait, that few find it?
A15845	& c. who persecute the godly, for keeping close to this Word?
A15845	( for they accused him of many things) but, which of you can convince me of sinne?
A15845	10. and what is rebellion but folly?
A15845	10. where God indit ● ing Cain for murthering his Brother, saith, What h ● st th ● u done?
A15845	13. that he will have no mercy, for such as are desperately wicked?
A15845	13. threatned?
A15845	13. yea, if the Campe of Israel suffered so much for one Achan''s fault; what may wee expect, that have such a multitude of Achans amongst us?
A15845	14. and indeed, if they be spiritually discerned; how should they discerne them, that have not the Spirit?
A15845	14. and those mockers, Acts, 2. imputed the true worke of the Spirit to drunkennesse; who would not rather be dispraised, then commended by them?
A15845	14. devilish counsell given to Pilate and the people against him?
A15845	14. take him Prisoner?
A15845	15. and wherein doe these godlesse persons, drunkards,( though they live in our Church) differ from infidels?
A15845	15. cursed?
A15845	15. wherewith he slew a thousand men?

A15845	Whether we have a Spirit without guile?
A15845	Whether we seare our own corruptions, as well as Sathans temptations?
A15845	Whether we would refuse a booty, if we had as fit an opportunity to take it, and no man perceive the same, as Achan had?
A15845	Whether wee would refuse a bribe, like Elisha, though wee should meet with one, which were as willing and able to give it as Naaman?
A15845	While thy mouth is opened to sweare and blaspheme, why is it not instantly fild with fire and brimstone?
A15845	Who can recount the hurts that by this meanes come to the whole body, especially the head, stomack, liver, and the more noble parts?
A15845	Who knoweth not, that the suggestion of one new thought, is harder, and better, then many repeated?
A15845	Who then, without a shower of teares, can think on thy deplorable state; or without mourning meditate thy sad condition?
A15845	Why do we pray, deliver us from evill, but that we imply, besides all other mischiefes, that there is an infectious power in it, to make us evill?
A15845	Why was Sacrifice it selfe good, but because it was commanded?
A15845	Why was not thy soule and hers, sent coupled to the fire of torment, as your bodies were undevided in the flame of uncleannesse?
A15845	Why was that Law ● nacted, for the strict avoiding of Leprous persons?

A15845	Will you know what course Demosthenes tooke in this case?
A15845	Wouldest thou keepe out of this snare of the divell and drunkards?

A15845	Yea, aske them why they drinke, and keepe company so much?
A15845	Yea, how impossible is it for a man, not to ruine himselfe, when he wants his sight?
A15845	Yea, if discretion and moderation bee as hoops to a vessell, how should these hogsheads keepe their liquor, if you take away those hoops?
A15845	Yea, if halfe so much were knowne to man, as God knowes of him, how would all drunkards hang downe their heads for shame?
A15845	Yea, if judgement begin at the house of God; where shall the ungodly and wicked appeare?
A15845	Yea, if men have so many slights to compasse their matters, how can the compasser himselfe hold his fingers?

A15845	Yea, who more sottish, then he which refuseth to be a Saint, that he may be a beast?
A15845	Yea, who will sooner kill and ● lay then cowards, when once they are pot valiant?
A15845	Yea, woe is me, how is the world turned beast?
A15845	Yea, wouldest thou be secure?
A15845	You often complaine of bastardies, Sheep- stealers, robbers, quarrellers, and the like: will you be eased of these diseases?
A15845	and how are our Cities and Townes pestered, and our streets strewed with these filthes?
A15845	and if Peter walkt upon the pavement of the water, did the rest of the Disciples step forth and follow him?
A15845	and on the other side, to vilifie, reproach, and undervalue all that hate, and loath it in their judgments, or else renounce it in their practice?
A15845	and what reeling, and staggering in our St ● e ● ● s?
A15845	and what thinke you doe drunkards, the seede of the Serpent, and children of the Devill, more delight in, then the murther of soules?

A15845	are wee in the path of Gods protection?
A15845	art thou so farre from loveing and fearing him, that thou hatest others, which doe?
A15845	but what was the answer?

A15845	for who hath heard of your name, that is not driven to admiration and veneration of your singular sufficiencies?
A15845	he had better have perished in the waters, then have lived unto his Fathers curse?
A15845	he that is evill to himselfe, to whom will he be good?
A15845	he that will deprive himselfe of reason, should loose also the guide and pylot of reason, Gods Spirit and Grace?
A15845	he that will wittingly, and willingly, make himselfe an habitation of uncleane spirits, should not dispossesse them at his owne pleasure?
A15845	himselfe was also stoned: did he afflict his owne countrimen?
A15845	himselfe was often imprisoned: did he helpe to stone Steven?
A15845	his owne countrimen no lesse afflicted him: did he lay stripes upon the Saints?
A15845	his wife knowes not; aske the servants, they know not; when will he bee at home?
A15845	how could hee have made himselfe so contemptible, even to his owne children, as he did by being drunk?
A15845	how doth it damme up the head and spirits with mud?
A15845	how doth it infatuate the understanding, blind the judgement, pervert the will, and corrupt all the affections?

A15845	how many more by Sathans injections, presenting to the affections things absent from the Senses?
A15845	how many thousands in this kingdome are content to bee misled with the multitude, rather then be an object of their scorne and derision?
A15845	how oft doth one commend or condemne me for one thing, and another for the contrary?
A15845	how should mud take fire?
A15845	if I can not know it, how should I make you know it?
A15845	if Sampson be thus punished; shall the Philistims escape?
A15845	in the way wherein the Angels guard and watch?
A15845	is it in hope to humble them?
A15845	is it possible that the reasonable soule of man( not professedly barbarous) should be capable of such a monster?
A15845	it may bee demaunded; should Christians be friends with them who are enemies to the Crosse of Christ?
A15845	nicke- name, raile on, and slander us, even strike, maime, and kill us, but because their hands are tyed by the Law?
A15845	not that there is a deficiency of power in the godly, but will: for could not David go as far as Achitohpel?
A15845	or a poore man, what summes of money are in the Kings Exchequers?
A15845	or goe into an infected house, to fetch out a rich suite?
A15845	or if hee doe, will not the judge so much the rather send him to the Gallowes?

A15845	or, every one is of this or that judgment, and are you wiser then al?
A15845	or, hath he spoken the word, and shall not he accomplish it?
A15845	rejoyced at in his misery and distresse?
A15845	so the truly humbled soule will say, is this a time to drink and revell in?
A15845	that every man shall be punished according to merit; what will become of thee?
A15845	that their deaths should bee answerable to their lives?
A15845	that thou mightest be despised, blasphemed?
A15845	the Iewes layd stripes upon him: was he very painefull and diligent to beate downe the Gospell?
A15845	the wisdome of Achitophel into folly?
A15845	the wisdome of Iesabel into a shamefull death?
A15845	the wisdome of Nimr ● d into confusion?

A15845	they will tempt thee to play: wouldest thou goe to a Sermon?
A15845	to have as expert a tongue, and as quicke a memory, as Portius, who never forgat any thing that hee had once read?
A15845	to have the theory, and be able to prattle of wisdome by roate, yet not know what it is by effect and experience?

A15845	wilt thou neglect the office of a friend, to avoid the suspition of an enemy?
A15845	with the Astronomer, to observe the motions of the Heavens, while his heart is buried in the earth?
A15845	with the Law- maker, to set downe many Lawes in particular; and not to remember the common law of nature, or law generall, that al must dye?
A15845	with the Naturalist, to search out the cause of many effects, and let passe the consideration of the principall, and most necessary?

A67744	And in reason, did Christ come to call sinners to repentance?
A67744	And in reason; did hee come to call sinners to repentance, and shall he not shew mercy to the penitent?
A67744	And indeed what can be a more forcible reason to make our hearts relent, though they be never so stony?
A67744	And indeed what is that wisdome worth, which nothing profits the owner of it, either touching vertue, or happinesse?
A67744	And indeed what is the corporal sympathy, to the spiritual antipathy?

A67744	And lastly( for I might be endlesse in the prosecution of this,) Why were all the just in Solomons time, had in abomination, and mockt of the wicked?
A67744	And lastly, By whom was our Saviour Christ betrayed, but by his own Disciple Iudas?
A67744	And lastly, shall our momentany sufferings be rewarded with everlasting glory?
A67744	And makes not this exceedingly for our Makers, for our Guardians glory?
A67744	And makes not this infinitely for the glory of God?
A67744	And may not this comfort thee?
A67744	And now for conclusion: Are the Ioyes of Heaven so unspeakable and glorious?
A67744	And see how he followed his Masters example ▪ for who, amongst us so loves his benefactors, as Saint Paul loved his malefactors?

A67744	And shall we deny this Lord that hath bought us?
A67744	And shall we grutch to beare a few scoffs for CHRIST?
A67744	And so of all other enjoyments: As, Dost thou desire beauty, riches, honour, pleasure, long life, or whatever else can be named?
A67744	And that devillish plot of Haman against Mordecai and his people to the good of his Church in general, and of Ioseph and Mordecai in particular?
A67744	And that it is not so much given, as laid up?
A67744	And that we are indeed, which we are in temptation: for, can we not abide a drawing plaister, to drain away corrupt blood, and humours?
A67744	And the Apostles esteemed it a grace, to be disgraced for him: and shall we grumble, or think much at it?
A67744	And the Mister himself?
A67744	And the same may be averred of all kindes of crosses: For, is it not commonly seen, that the pleasures of the body are the poisons of the soul?
A67744	And then conclude with, What shall I render unto thee, O Lord, for all these thy benefits?
A67744	And then conclude with, What shall I render unto thee, ô Lord, for all these thy benefits?
A67744	And this God takes as done to himself, What saith Paul?
